Blue Heron
In the late 1990s, eight-year-old Sasha and her family relocate to a new home on Vancouver Island, but their fresh start is interrupted by increasingly dangerous behavior from the eldest son, Jeremy. At wit’s end, their parents are presented with a shattering choice. Award-winning director Sophy Romvari’s feature debut is a lyrical and profound testament to the things we carry with us, masterfully chronicling the haze of a languid summer and the hyaline clarity of the moments that defined it.
Long before she was making award-winning films, Ms. Romvari was popping corn, designing posters, and selling tickets in the box office of ye olde Rio Theatre.
"It’s a film that seldom comes out and tells you exactly what’s happening, but its drama is so lucid that before any real tragedy unfolds (or is even hinted at), you feel it in your bones." (Observer)
"It’s a major film, one of the best of 2025, and an announcement of the deep talent of its writer/director." (RogerEbert.com)
"It’s a film so delicately textured that it is as though you can practically reach out and touch the grass of the family’s yard. " (The Wrap)
"Heartbreaking barely begins to describe it, although the terms masterful and transcendent also apply. " (The Daily Beast)
"“Blue Heron” may be the most emotionally devastating film of the year -- and also perhaps the most comforting. " (IndieWire)
