Plot

Provincial pre-teenager Zazie stays in Paris with her Uncle Gabriel (a female impersonator) for two days, while her mother spends some time with her lover. Zazie manages to evade her uncle's custody, however, and, métro strike notwithstanding, sets out to explore the city on her own.

Cast

Note

In the film, Zazie is younger than in the book (where her mother is worried about Zazie's virginity).
