La Pointe Courte[lapwɛ̃tkuʁt] is a 1955 French drama film directed by Agnès Varda (in her feature film directorial debut). It has been cited by many critics as a forerunner of the French New Wave,[1] with the historian Georges Sadoul calling it "truly the first film of the nouvelle vague".[2] The film takes place in Sète in the south of France. The Pointe Courte ("short point") is a tiny quarter of the town known as the fisherman's village.
