Christophe Honoré's (Sorry Angel, The Beloved) most autobiographical film to date, Winter Boy stars rising actor, Paul Kircher, as a young man who is sent reeling by an unexpected tragedy and looks for comfort in all the wrong places. Also driven by brilliant performances from Juliette Binoche and Vincent Lacoste, Honoré once again manages to construct an impeccably accurate, empathetic narrative around flawed protagonists.
