Au Revoir Les Enfants (1987)
http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0092593/
Few directors have portrayed the agonies and epiphanies of growing up as poetically -- and controversially -- as Louis Malle. Laced with autobiographical details, 'Murmur of the Heart'; 'Lacombe, Lucien'; and 'Au revoir les enfants' tell stories of youth, set against the tumult of World War II and postwar France. Tragic, amusing, and poignant, these three films are more than just coming-of-age stories. They are the director's ongoing response to a world gone wrong.

Director: Louis Malle
Description: Au revoir les enfants tells a heartbreaking story of friendship and devastating loss between two boys living in Nazi-occupied France. At a provincial Catholic boarding school, the precocious youths enjoy true camaraderie -- until a secret is revealed. Based on events from writer-director Malle's own childhood, the film is a subtle, precisely observed tale of courage, cowardice, and tragic awakening.
