400 Blows, The (1959)

Les Quatre Cents Coups (1959), released in Poland as 400 batów, is the landmark debut of François Truffaut and a foundational film of the French New Wave. This semi-autobiographical masterpiece introduced Antoine Doinel, a misunderstood Parisian youth whose rebellions against a cold family and rigid school system captured the era's spirit of teenage angst.

Its critical success, including winning Best Director at Cannes, signaled a shift toward personal, "auteur"-driven filmmaking that forever changed the landscape of global cinema. The Polish poster for the film utilizes a minimalist, high-contrast aesthetic that stands in sharp contrast to more traditional painted posters:
