Blue Heron

Opens May 8

In the late 1990s, eight-year-old Sasha and her family relocate 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 by which it was defined.

"It’s a film so delicately textured that it is as though you can practically reach out and touch the grass of the family’s yard."
Chase Hutchinson, The Wrap
"There is a pulsating ache at the heart of writer/director Sophy Romvari’s assured feature debut Blue Heron that hits with such precision, it could break you open from the inside."
Robert Daniels, RogerEbert.com
