FALCON LAKE
In Le Bon’s quiet and eerie directorial debut, based on Bastien Vive`s’s graphic novel Une sœur, 13-year-old Bastien and his family travel to rural Quebec to stay with friends in their lakeside cabin. Bastian is quickly beguiled by their hosts’ mysterious 16-year-old daughter Chloe´, and the two form a bond, spending lazy days together, going to parties and telling ghost stories. Le Bon assuredly bends coming- of-age genre conventions, finely crafting a moody love story with a rich, gothic ambience. Film Center exclusive.
