The filmalso received nominations for Best Motion Picture – Non English Language at the 2023 Golden Globes, Best Foreign Language Film at the 2023 Critics Choice Awards and Best European Film, Director, Actor and Screenwriter at the 2022 European Film Awards.

CLOSE is an elegant, poetic and empathetic study of youth from acclaimed writer-director Lukas Dhont. Thirteen-year-olds Léo and Rémi are inseparable; best friends, as close as brothers. However as they start a new school year, the pressures of burgeoning adolescence challenge their bond with unexpected and far-reaching consequences. With incredible performances from newcomers Eden Dambrine and Gustav De Waele, Dhont’s evocative second film is a profoundly moving coming of age story that will have an enduring impact.
