1971 · ★ 7.2

The ideal of youth is at the centre of this eloquent film, mixing documentary and fiction, art and experimentation.

But not just any job. The two idealists want a job that will satisfy their desire for freedom, peace and respect.

Strangers in this country that tells them nothing, they come across brutally, materialism, violence, and egocentrism.
