With Jean-Luc Godard as his guide, French-Canadian filmmaker Gilles Groux has put together an improvised, episodic film of a young French-Canadian nationalist in search of himself. He has an affair with a young actress to whom he is drawn because she is Jewish, and he expects her to understand and sympathize with the difficulties of minority groups, but they gradually drift apart. As the movie amounts to a character sketch of a youth who is neither particularly sympathetic or interesting, it soon becomes tedious. Canadian cineastes point to this film as a breakthrough documentary-styled political tract styled after the French New Wave; however, in retrospect the movie is shallow imitation Godard. Viewed under the title CAT IN THE SACK.
