After the success of Genèse in 2018, Philippe Lesage returns with Comme le Feu, a poignant drama that won the Grand Prix du Jury International for the Generation 14Plus selection in Berlin. Starring Arieh Worthalter, Noah Parker and Aurelia Arandi-Longpré, the film is already shaping up to be a summer must-see. Comme le Feu also premiered at the Champs-Élysées Film Festival (CEFF).
Jeff, 17, has secret feelings for Alyosha. Together, they are fascinated by Blake, an old friend of the girl's father. He invites them to spend a few days at his remote hunting lodge in the heart of Canada's far north. In the middle of the wilderness, Jeff and Alyosha discover a world of immature adults, ready to ignite at the slightest spark.
Comme le Feu should captivate fans of psychological dramas and initiation stories. Fans of films such as The Escape King or The Wild Boys will find here a profound exploration of adolescent emotions and adult tensions in a breathtaking natural setting. The encounter between youth and adult immaturity, set against a backdrop of grandiose landscapes, sets this film apart from other contemporary dramas.

Carried by talented actors such as Arieh Worthalter and Noah Parker, this film promises to be a cinematic highlight of the summer.
