Nell'Inghilterra rurale di fine '700 un giovane aristocratico a cui non difettano le ricchezze, Charles Bingley, affitta la tenuta vicina a quella dei Bennet, a cui non difettano invece le figlie da maritare. Una sera, durante una festa danzante, Bingley fa il suo ingresso nella sala scatenando lo scompiglio fra le fanciulle del paese che desiderano un giro di danza e un (buon) partito. Accompagnato dall'altezzosa sorella e dal bello quanto presuntuoso Signor Darcy, Bingley si innamora perdutamente della primogenita dei Bennet, la timida e placida Jane. Amore a prima vista sarebbe anche per Darcy e la secondogenita Bennet, Lizzie, se non fosse per quella loro indole indomita e poco incline al confronto.

Vita, patimenti e morte dell'asino Balthazar, vittima della malvagità umana nella campagna francese, in parallelo con l'esistenza, altrettanto infelice, di Maria, sua prima padroncina. Una delle vette del cinema e della visione pessimistica del mondo e dell'umanità di Bresson, che ha come punti di riferimento letterario Bernanos e Dostoevskij: è un mondo senza la Grazia osservato dall'occhio obiettivo di un asino; una riflessione cristiana (giansenista?) sull'esistenza del male; un viaggio sconvolgente attraverso i vizi umani narrato con un linguaggio spoglio e una concretezza che lascia parlare la realtà (le sue immagini) senza emettere giudizi. Lo scrittore Klossowski interpreta il mercante di grano. Esordio di A. Wiazemsky.

Seven directors each dramatize one of the seven deadly sins in a short film. In "Anger," a domestic argument over a fly in the Sunday soup escalates into nuclear war. In "Sloth," a movie star would rather pay someone to tie his shoe than bend over to do it himself, and he can't be bothered to accept a starlet's sexual favors. In "Gluttony," a peasant family on its way to the funeral of a relative who died from indigestion stops regularly to eat and drink en route, arriving in time to eat some more. In "Greed," a high-class prostitute refunds the price of a cadet's lottery ticket. In "Pride," an unfaithful wife finds reason to reform. And so on through lust and envy.
