Sophy Romvari’s superb debut recalls Charlotte Wells’ Aftersun with its intelligent, valuable study of family trauma.

Dir: Sophy Romvari | Canada, Hungary | 2025 | 91 mins | Subtitled

Cast | Eylul Guven, Amy Zimmer, Ádám Tompa, Iringó Réti

 

Eight-year-old Sasha (Eylul Guven) is settling into her Hungarian family’s new life on Vancouver Island when her older stepbrother, Jeremy (Edik Beddoes), begins acting out in self-destructive ways. Sasha watches as her family tries to support Jeremy through his mysterious problems and increasingly volatile behaviour, but it seems nothing will help.

Set in the 1990s, Sophy Romvari’s lyrical, heartrending feature debut draws on her own childhood experiences. A sensitive, beautifully shot and structured study of family trauma and grief that recalls Charlotte Wells’ Aftersun, it interrogates the pain and complexity of trying to understand our loved ones and the haunting shifts in perspective afforded by time.
