Robert Bresson deploys his trademark minimalist style to heartbreaking effect with this hugely empathetic and essential drama, one of the most searing portraits of human desperation ever put on film. With a dying mother, an absent, alcoholic father, and a baby brother in need of care, the teenage Mouchette seeks solace and respite from her circumstances in the nature of the French countryside.
