Red Rocks(Les Roches Rouges)

Childhood bravado and raw impulses well up when fidgety 5-year-old Géo and his two mates roam their patch of the sun-soaked French Riviera. There they hunt the best cliff-diving spots, zip around on quad bikes, dabble with theft and pester the rare adult that crosses their paths. After the trio meet more thrill-seeking whelps out at the forbidding rocky shore, Géo plunges into a competition for affections that takes him as far as Italy. French firebrand Dumont, former philosophy teacher and helmer of Cannes Grand Jury Prize winners Humanity (24th) and Flanders (31st), steers his dizzying kiddo curio across serene landscapes, free-spirited frolics and a touch of puppy love.
