Grades 6–12
Agnès Jaoui, 2004. Color. 111 min.
With Jean-Pierre Bacri, Marilou Berry
Lolita is angry with the world around her
because she feels that nobody sees her.
She wishes she was thinner and prettier,
if only in her father’s eyes. But he is so selfcentered,
he only cares about himself.
That is until Lolita’s singing teacher helps
her gain his respect and gives Lolita
the gift of self-confidence. Winner
for Best Screenplay at the 2004 Cannes
Film Festival.
Part of Education Outreach: Young Audience
