The Umbrellas of Cherbourg

Synopsis

Geneviève Emery, the daughter of an umbrella-shop owner, falls in love with Guy, a handsome garage mechanic. When the boy is shipped off to fight in Algeria, the two lovers must grow up quickly. Exquisitely designed in a kaleidoscope of colors, and told entirely through lifting songs by the great composer Michel Legrand, The Umbrellas of Cherbourg is on of the most revered and unorthodox movie musicals of all time.
