Departure

Stevenson steals the show as the woman on the verge of a nervous breakdown Mark Kermode, The Observer.

Beatrice (Juliet Stevenson, Bend it like Beckham) and her teenage son Elliot (Alex Lawther, The Imitation Game) spend a week packing up the contents of their remote holiday house in the South of France. Fifteen-year-old Elliot struggles with his sexuality and she in turn is confronted by the realisation that her marriage is coming to an end. When an enigmatic local teenager, Clément (Phénix Brossard) enters their lives, both mother and son are compelled to confront their desires and finally, each other.

DEPARTURE is an intimate story beginning at dawn on the first day and ending at night on the sixth day, charting the end of a summer, the end of a childhood and the end of an otherwise nuclear middleclass family.

It is beautifully filmed, announcing Steggall as an exciting new voice in British cinema The List

"Hormones are raging in this beautifully shot, quietly involving character study powered by an excellent turn from Lawther " Empire
