Blue Heron 12A

"★★★★★ – a singular and shattering family drama that is as elusive and woozy as your own childhood memories" – Radio Times

"★★★★★ – may be the most emotionally devastating film of the year -- and also perhaps the most comforting" – IndieWire

★★★★★ – The Skinny

★★★★ – RogerEbert

Set in the 1990s, the debut feature from one of Canada’s most exceptional emerging filmmakers is an intimate and moving exploration of memory and love. A Hungarian-Canadian family move to Vancouver Island seeking to build a new life, but the erratic behaviour of their eldest child, Jeremy, threatens to destabilise them.

Seen through the eyes of eight-year-old daughter Sasha, this is a beautifully shot and boldly structured exploration of family that draws on Romvari’s own memories.
