491 (1964)

 

A group of youth criminals who are chosen to participate in a social experiment, where they are assigned to live together in an apartment while being supervised by two forgiving social workers.

Deliberately provocative, often banned and censured, this social satire indeed presents some shocking moments; its message of mocking a liberal pedagogy is dubious, if not downright reactionary.
