Résumé

56 Up est la plus longue étude de caractère jamais filmée. Michale Apted a décidé de filmer un groupe d'enfants tous les sept ans. À travers l'histoire de ces enfants devenus adultes, il a dresse un tableau représentatif de notre époque.

Starting in 1964 with Seven Up!, the UP Series has explored this Jesuit maxim. The original concept was to interview 14 children from diverse backgrounds from all over England, asking them about their lives and their dreams for the future. Every seven years, renowned director Michael Apted, a researcher for Seven Up!, has been back to talk to them, examining the progression of their lives.
From cab driver Tony to schoolmates Jackie, Lynn and Susan and the enigmatic Neil, as they turn 56 more life-changing decisions and surprising developments are revealed. A towering achievement in the annals of cinema, the UP Series is, according to critic Roger Ebert, "an inspired, almost noble use of the film medium. Apted penetrates to the central mystery of life."
