La vocation d'André Carel

Jean Choux, Switzerland, 1925o

s
vBack

At the urging of his over-protective father, André Carel, a young bourgeois from Paris, travels to Lake Geneva to rejuvenate his health. There, he falls in love with Reine, the beautiful daughter of a simple boatsman. In order to impress her solely through his personality and character, he conceals his wealthy origins and, disguising himself as a migrant laborer, takes up work on board her father's ship.

André findet seine Berufung, indem er von der Mühsal der Menschen berichtet. Die Moral dieser erbaulichen Fabel wirkt heute zwar überholt, doch umso bestechender sind die Schönheit der Landschaft am Genfersee und Michel Simon in seiner ersten grossen Filmrolle, der eine Note von erfrischender Komik einbringt.
