In the late 1990s, eight-year-old Sasha and her Hungarian immigrant family relocate to a new home on Vancouver Island. Their fresh start is interrupted by increasingly dangerous behaviour from Jeremy, the family’s oldest child.

With its delicate balance of tenderness and tension, BLUE HERON captures the fragile bonds that hold a family together, and the quiet moments that threaten to pull them apart.

Canadian-Hungarian filmmaker Sophy Romvari has received recent critical acclaim - her short film STILL PROCESSING received a Canadian Screen Award nomination, Criterion Channel launched a retrospective of her work, and her incredibly accomplished debut feature BLUE HERON just had it's World Premiere at the Locarno International Film Festival 2025.
