About
A 17-year-old umbrella-shop worker and a 20-year-old mechanic plan to marry, but her mother disapproves and he is drafted for military service in Algeria.
In Cherbourg, 17-year-old Geneviève Emery (Catherine Deneuve) works in the small, financially strained umbrella shop run by her widowed mother, Madame Emery (Anne Vernon). Geneviève is in love with Guy Foucher (Nino Castelnuovo), a 20-year-old auto mechanic, and the two plan to marry. Madame Emery opposes the match, considering her daughter too young and Guy not from a suitable background. Guy is called up for two years of military service in Algeria. The film is sung throughout, with Jacques Demy directing and music by Michel Legrand.
