MUBI's take

Chronicling day-to-day struggles with desire and fidelity through his signature lightness of touch, Éric Rohmer takes us to the gorgeous Lake Annecy for this Six Moral Tales highlight. Starring Jean-Claude Brialy as the film’s neurotic center, Claire’s Knee is a whip-smart summertime comedy.
