This film, along with Truffaut's "The 400 Blows," is hailed as a seminal work of the French New Wave. Michel (Jean-Paul Belmondo), a broke street punk, steals a car in Marseille and heads to Paris. On his way, he gets caught by the police for speeding; to escape, he shoots and kills a police officer. After arriving in Paris, he hides out with his journalist girlfriend Patricia (Jean Seberg). Besides evading the police manhunt, he is also trying to retrieve some money he made from selling a car. When Patricia goes to the newspaper, she encounters a police chief who asks her to inform him if she hears any news about Michel. Patricia has mixed feelings about Michel—she is deeply fascinated by his carefree attitude towards everything, yet she also finds him too reckless.
