Media Reviews and More: A sudden separation from a best friend. The guilt carried by an innocent boy. A story of cruel tragedy and redemption that brought tears to the eyes of people all over the world. "CLOSE," which won the Grand Prix at the 75th Cannes International Film Festival, where it was called "the film that made audiences cry the most" (BBC.com), and was nominated for Best International Feature Film at the 95th Academy Awards, has received 47 awards and 104 nominations at various international film festivals. The director is Lukas Dhont, who made a striking debut with his previous film "Girl," which won the Camera d'Or (Best First Feature Film) at the 71st Cannes International Film Festival. In this, his second feature film, he delicately portrays the friendship and complex relationship between two 13-year-old best friends, Leo and Remy. The music is composed by Valentin Ajadi, who also worked on Lukas Dhont's previous film "Girl." He says he started writing the music for this film from the script stage. This post-classical piece, meticulously crafted over a long period of time, features piano, strings, and oboe sounds that deeply move the viewer. (C)RS
