..Sophy Romvari, 90 min, 2025 - Canada, Hungary
Originally from Hungary, eight-year-old Sasha relocates with her family to Vancouver in the late 1990s. In this unfamiliar landscape, her older brother Jeremy begins to develop dangerous behavioral disorders. From these beginnings, the narrative unfolds across two timelines that explore how these troubling events shape Sasha’s sense of self through adulthood. Drawing on her own memories and an emotional trajectory shaped by migration and her brother’s mental illness, Sophy Romvari’s debut feature unfolds with quiet, affecting restraint. Working in a hybrid form that occasionally leans towards documentary, the film finds a singular voice: one that approaches trauma with full humanity.
