“What Dhont understands, in short, is how kinetic the rites of passage are—how growing pains are expressed not in words, however therapeutic, but in rushes of activity.” – Anthony Lane, New Yorker
“Dambrine and De Waele are wonderfully natural, conveying the complexities of youthful experience with impressive directness and poise.” – A.O. Scott, New York Times
“An exceptional film of empathy and vision.” – Nicholas Barber, BBC.com
“A picture which is intimate in scope but which packs a considerable emotional wallop.” – Wendy Ide, Screen International
Léo and Rémi are two thirteen-year-old best friends, whose seemingly unbreakable bond is suddenly, tragically torn apart. Winner of the Grand Jury Prize at the Cannes Film Festival, Lukas Dhont’s second film is an emotionally transformative and unforgettable portrait of the intersection of friendship and love, identity and independence, and heartbreak and healing.
