From celebrated auteur Christophe Honoré (Les Chansons DAmour & Dans Paris) comes an acclaimed tale about family & brotherly understanding adapted from one of his own novels. Leo is the eldest of four brothers of whom Marcel age 10 is the youngest. With their young parents they are a happy & close-knit family. One evening Marcel overhears the family discussing something about Leo that they wish to keep a secret from him. Although he yearns to know the truth nobody can bring themselves to speak openly about it. Eventually Leo takes his younger brother to Paris so that he can visit an old boyfriend & explain both himself & his situation to Marcel who in turn shows an understanding & fraternal love that transcends the expectations his family had of him. Heart-breakingly honest & beautifully uplifting Close To Leo is a definitive chapter in French Queer Cinema that has enraptured audiences & critics alike.
