Underneath the Belgian summer sun, Léo (Eden Dambrine) and Rémi (Gustav De Waele) share a friendship as intimate as it is innocent. This innocence is disrupted and Close is the story of that disruption. When outside forces make their way into a relationship they have no place in, altering it forever, how do two young boys learning to navigate the world cope with that loss? The answer is both shattering and hopeful as writer-director Lukas Dhont's sophomore feature reveals a stunning portrait of before and after, of the intimacy of friendship and the devastation of losing it, all with Dambrine's astonishing performance at the center.
