Blue Heron LIFF 2025

The Leeds International Film Festival always a time of excitement. I'm going to a few but I fancy scheduling this one as a Meetup see if anyone fancies joining me.
Dir/scr: Sophy Romvari. Canada/Hungary. 2025. 90mins

A lyrical study of the twisting nature of memory and the lasting impact of childhood trauma, Canadian filmmaker Sophy Romvari’s debut Blue Heron has an authenticity and sensitivity that steers it through occasional moments of narrative affectation. The story of a Hungarian immigrant family of six settling into a new home on Vancouver Island in the late 1990s, as told through the eyes of the youngest child, the film’s slow pace and contemplative tenor rewards a patient viewer.
