Close (2022)
Movie
Released
Two boys' easy physical closeness becomes something they have to interpret under other children's scrutiny. Eden Dambrine makes the shift from instinctive affection to self-conscious distance distressingly legible. Lukas Dhont's film is exceptionally painful, with suicide and grief central; its insight into friendship is not a promise of gentle viewing.
