A simple, late-career classic from François Truffaut, Small Change is a collection of loving vignettes of the resourceful children in a laid-back burg in southern France. Childhood was the humanistic auteur's go-to focus and it's depicted herein with a seemingly offhand, au naturel touch, whether the preteens are at school, home, or the cinema. Now in a new 35mm print, Truffaut's camera observes the oh-nos to joys of several kids — from Julien's schemes to counter parental abuse to Patrick's sexual education — for a portrait that is at once humorous, heartening, and whole.
