DESCRIPTION:

In this provocative Academy Award winner from French director Serge Bourgignon, a psychologically damaged war veteran and a neglected child begin a startlingly intimate friendship - one that ultimately ignites the suspicion and anger of his friends and neighbors in suburban Paris. Bourguignon's film makes thoughtful, humane drama out of potentially incendiary subject matter, and with the help of the sensitive cinematography of Henri Decae (THE 400 BLOWS) and a delicate score by Maurice Jarre (LAWRENCE OF ARABIA), SUNDAYS AND CYBELE becomes a stirring contemplation of an alliance between two troubled souls.
