A 16-year-old boy defies his bourgeois family’s expectations by dropping out of school and starting a masonry apprenticeship where he is increasingly drawn to Vlad, a charismatic Ukrainian colleague.
Selected for the Queer Palm at this year’s Cannes festival, Laurent Canter’s (The Class) final film follows a 16-year-old boy who defies his bourgeois family’s expectations by dropping out of school and starting a masonry apprenticeship where he meets a charismatic Ukranian colleague, Vlad. Feeling out of place in his family’s elegant villa and disconnected from his peers, Enzo finds himself increasingly drawn to Vlad in this French coming-of-age drama.
Enzo is screening as part of French Film Festival UK's annual celebration of the best in French language cinema at Phoenix.
In French with English subtitles.
