Description
Acclaimed Oscar nominated director Francois Truffaut has created an absorbing film about the true-life of a young boy found living alone in the woods of France in the 1700s. Using actual journal entries, Truffaut not only directed and co-write the script with Jean Gruault, but also starred as the unflappable Doctor Jean--Marc-Gaspard Itard, the visionary who takes on the incredible task of civilizing The Wild Child.
At The National Institute For The Deaf and Dumb in Paris, a barely clothed and dirty young boy is admitted. Found in a forest, the child is unable to speak, communicate or function in society. Christened Victor by the hospital staff, his case is taken up by Doctor Itard, a lone physician who has an unyielding dedication to re-integrating the lad into society. But the road to tame the bats is a rocky one and Itard will have to work tirelessly to teach Victor how to reclaim his place in the world...even if it means staking his reputation on it!
