I even met happy gypsies - Skupljači perja - (1967)

The protagonist, Beli Bora Perjar, is a charming but mean-spirited gypsy, while his former affair, the kafana singer Lenče, is submissive. Bora is in love with the younger Tisa, who is being offered in marriage by her step-father. The two get themselves in trouble and eventually have to flee. Tisa rejects her husband and she and Bora get married in the church. Tisa tries to get to Belgrade, while Bora stabs a man in a knife fight. They are both, therefore, exiled from their Romani camp, yet their adventures continue.

Peppermint Soda - Diabolo menthe - (Diane Kurys, 1977)

In 1963 Paris, 13-year-old Anne is a listless student, largely unconcerned with grades—or the Cold War anxiety hovering over daily life. She lives with her divorcée mother and increasingly politically aware older sister Frédérique, and wants most of all to wear stockings, sit in cafés, and spy on her sister. Diane Kurys’ tenderly crafted, autobiographical directorial debut is by turns sweet and solemn, delicately honing in on the quiet loneliness of trying to find oneself in the early years of teenagehood.

Director: Diane Kurys.

Writers: Diane Kurys, Alain Le Henry.

Stars: Eléonore Klarwein, Odile Michel, Anouk Ferjac, Michel Puterflam, Yves Réiner, Robert Rimbaud, Marie-Véronique Maurin, Corinne Dacla, Coralie.
