The J3

1946 · 85 min

A gentle, nostalgic comedy about school life under occupation, charming and light with a warm teacher-student dynamic.

But the day a new philosophy teacher takes charge of their class, things begin to change. It must be said that Mademoiselle Bravard is not only a gifted educator but a charming young woman as well. Thanks to her, all the students end up passing their finals.
