Small Change is a French film by François Truffaut, and uses a series of loosely connected vignettes to explore the joys, sorrows, and challenges of childhood in a small French town, focusing on the lives of various children, including a motherless boy and his abused friend. The film is known for its realistic, and non-sentimental portrayal of youth, blending humor, and drama as it covers themes, like first love, school, life, and the harsh realities of child abuse, which ultimately becomes a central plot point. Considered a classic
