The most popular and unforgettable film in Demy's entire career, which won the Golden Palm at the Cannes Film Festival and made him famous all over the world. With the invaluable help of Catherine Deneuve's beauty and Michel Legrand's lovely tunes, Demy shot the total musical about a Geneviève, 17, living with her widowed mother, who owns an umbrella shop in Cherbourg: a beautiful love story in which all the dialogues are sung.
