The Wild Child (1970)
Colorized Version
Based on a true 18th-century case, The Wild Child follows Dr. Jean Itard (François Truffaut) as he attempts to civilize Victor, a feral boy discovered living alone in the forests of France. The film meticulously portrays their evolving relationship – from Victor’s initial animalistic behaviors to his gradual awakening to human emotion and language – in a moving study of education and empathy.
