CLOSE
Monday 8th December 8pm
A film from France with English subtitles
With summer drawing to a close, inseparable 13-year-old
best friends Léo and Rémi idle away the rest of the holidays before school. It is as if the two bosom buddies share an unbreakable brotherly bond beyond their comprehension--in fact, nothing can ever come between them. However, when the boys' cloudless friendship catches the attention of their schoolmates
on the first day of school, mean remarks put Léo and Rémi's close relationship to the test. After that, nothing will ever be the same again. Struggling to understand what has happened, Léo approaches Sophie, Rémi's mother. "Close" is a film about friendship and responsibility.
