When Fall is Coming

Drama

BAFTA-nominated French filmmaker François Ozon (The Crime is Mine, Frantz) showcases a mushroom-related crime at a family lunch, in this evocative portrayal of life in a French village which hides many secrets beneath its tranquil exterior.

Michelle is enjoying a peaceful retirement in a Burgundy village, close to her longtime friend Marie-Claude.

When her Parisian daughter Valérie drops off her son Lucas to spend the school holidays with his grandma, Michelle, stressed out by her daughter, serves her toxic mushrooms for lunch.

Valérie quickly recovers, but forbids her mother from seeing her grandson anymore.

Feeling lonely and guilty, Michelle falls into a depression… until Marie-Claude’s son gets out of prison.
