1949, postwar France - in a dark, doom{illed school for houbled boys where
hope itself is in short srlpply, a mild mannered new teacher has iust arrived,
only to find himself surrounded by prepubescent thieves, inveterate liars,
unapoloSetic rcbels and lost souls beyond reach Or arc they? When the
teacher introduces these suppos€dly hardened d€linquents to the freedom
and joy of music h€ discovers there is far morc to these children than anyone
dared to believe.
The music fucm Les Crolistes became a surP se hit in Fiance, reachinS #1 on
the charts. The composeG include the director and co-wdter of the film,
Christophe Baratier and Bruno Coulais.
