Film Kicks presents Blue Heron

Set on Vancouver Island this critically acclaimed semi-autobiographical feature film has been praised for it’s emotional depth and exploration of memory and grief. Directed by Sophy Romvari the story follows a family of six Hungarian immigrants who relocate to a new home on Vancouver Island. Their fresh start is upended by the increasingly dangerous and erratic behaviour of the oldest child. Memory is slippery and the question of what really happened is central to this powerful film.
