This short is a largely autobiographical work, based on 17-year-old François Truffaut's infatuation with the unconventional beauty Liliane Litvin. Truffaut met Litvin at the Cinémathèque Française and quit his job as a welder and moved to Paris to be near her. Like Antoine, he took an apartment across the street from hers so that he could monitor her activities. However, she ultimately was not interested in him nor in any of his friends. (She had attracted attention from Jean Gruault and Jean-Luc Godard.)
