"Léolo"
1992
Directed by Jean-Claude Lauzon

Whether it's dealing with his scatter-brained brother or plotting the murder of his grandfather, 12 year-old Léolo is an incorrigible misfit touched with a lovable streak of madness.  Léolo takes refuge in a fantasy world of poems and dreams where he can triumph over even the strangest of tragedies.  Léolo is an extraordinary hero and a glorious inspiration for anyone who ever dared to be a dreamer.  With Ginette Reno, Pierre Bourgault, Maxime Collin, Giuditta Del Vecchio and Julien Guiomar.  "Brilliantly comic, a film of surpassing beauty and strength." - Ft. Lauderdale Sun. French with English subtitles.  115 minutes.  More...1-World Review
