Blue Heron
Janus Films
An equisite debut film about growing up with an unstable older brother.
Writer/director Sophy Romvari's semi-autobiographical debut feature Blue Heron, a New York Times Critic's Pick, follows a recently immigrated family from Hungary to Vancouver Island whose oldest child is spiraling out of control. Told from the perspective of the family's youngest daughter, Sasha, the moving film is a masterfully assembled memory piece about growing up with a sibling in crisis. Following early runs in select cities, the film has resonated with critics and audiences alike.
