"L'Atalante" is unique masterpiece based on relatively simple script: A newlywed young couple travels on a riverboat along the Seine River. Also on board the ship are a young boy and an old sailor who understands the reality of physical labor, unlike the young female character in the story who longs for city life. The meaning of single, unforgettable moments for the human individual flows as an idea throughout the film, also provoking thoughts about the lost opportunities of human life that flow by like a riverboat. The images of a foggy French harbor are as impressive as the insightful way in which the director Jean Vigo portrays the reality of his characters. It is important for a person to seek an environment where there is a possibility of happiness. The couple in the film separates, but after experiencing the unfair and harsh everyday reality of the cities, the woman begins to long again for the safe and sensual world of the riverboat and its people.
