Inside a borrowed Parisian apartment painted in primary reds, yellows, and blues, five young students form a Maoist cell called the Aden Arabie cell, studying the Little Red Book, chanting revolutionary slogans, and debating the necessity of political terrorism and assassination. Jean-Luc Godard's Venice Special Jury Prize-winning pop-art political prophecy starring Jean-Pierre Léaud and Anne Wiazemsky that foretold the May 1968 student uprising.
