Blue Heron

“It’s a major film, one of the best of 2025, and an announcement of the deep talent of its writer/director, Sophy Romvari.”- RogerEbert.com

In the late 1990s, eight-year-old Sasha and her family relocate from Hungary to a new home on Vancouver Island, but their fresh start is interrupted by increasingly dangerous behavior from the eldest son, Jeremy. At wit’s end, their parents are presented with a shattering choice. Award-winning director Sophy Romvari’s feature debut is a lyrical and profound testament to the things we carry with us, masterfully chronicling the haze of a languid summer and the hyaline clarity of the moments that defined it. (Dir. by Sophy Romvari, 2026, Canada/Hungary, in English/Hungarian with English subtitles, 90 mins., Not Rated)
