À Nos Amours (FR, 1983)

Sandrine Bonnaire as the promiscuous teenager from an unhappy-if-comfortable family. The story flits from a Summer school to her home town, to apparent weekend returns from boarding school, to a marriage of whose only inkling we receive is a dress-fitting, to an eventual elopement with one of her admirers. Along the way there is much screwing and constant arguments at home, all of it unengagingly matter-of-fact rather than dramatic or shocking.

It's a slightly bleak, non-plussing kind of movie.
