Au revoir les enfants tells a heartbreaking story of friendship and devastating loss concerning two boys living in Nazi-occupied France. At a provincial Catholic boarding school, the precocious youths enjoy true camaraderie—until a secret is revealed.

A harrowing, heartbreaking story of life in a boys convent school in Nazi occupied France. The boys are played so well and the setting is so honestly and sensitively portrayed. A real tearjerker at the end

Seeing all the rampant antisemitism in 2022 makes this film a must watch.

[MUBI] Louis Malle creates a perfect movie. A story of friendship that is touching and tragic at the same time. This is one of those movies that deserve to be seen from time to time. Memories become exceptional images. There are no manichaeism, no emotional tricks. It has an extraordinary subtlety.
