Marking the last work of Pialat's turbulent cycle of 1970s films, this is the sequel to the filmmaker's feature debut ''[[Naked Childhood|L'enfance nue]]'' (1969) &ndash; picked up again from a vantage point ten years on from the lives of the earlier film's protagonists."<ref>''Moviemail Monthly Film Catalogue'', September 2009.</ref>
