Thirteen-year-olds Leo and Remi are inseparable; best friends, as close as brothers. However, as they start a new school year, the pressures of burgeoning adolescence challenge their bond with unexpected and far-reaching consequences. Winner of the Grand Prix award at Cannes and nominated for International Feature Film at the Academy Awards, Close is an elegant, poetic, and empathetic study of youth from writer-director Lukas Dhont and features incredible performances from newcomers Eden Dambrine and Gustav De Waele.
