Toni
Jean Renoir, Blu-ray, 85 min
France, 1935 (French)

Set in the 1930s among a community of immigrants living close to Marseille, Toni’s arrival from Italy and his love affairs set in motion a tragic story of cupidity and unrequited love. Made with nonprofessional actors and shot on location, Renoir’s innovative craft points to the Italian neorealist movement and the French New Wave.
