Torrens, an old prison for delinquant adolescents, is transformed into a “rehabilitation centre”, an institution which attempts to correct behaviour using scientific methods. “As for me, I had just been an enthusiastic spectator of Les 400 Coups by François Truffaut. Filmmaking means a camera in perpetual motion. It was an excellent learning experience.” Fausto Canel.
