Cleo (2019)

Section: International Competition of European First Feature Films

Directed by: Eva Cools

Belgium, 2019, 105 min

Projection place: Golden Apple Cinema, 5

Score:

• Info

Six months after surviving the car accident that killed her parents, Cleo is only just beginning to feel like herself again. The 17-year-old — who now lives with her grandmother along with her 7-year-old brother Bruno — is ready to revisit her favorite haunt, Club 7, for drinking and dancing with friends. For the first time, she seems to find an escape from her sorrow. So when a mysterious loner named Leos rescues her from a bar fight, Cleo doesn’t tell him about her parents. She merely mentions that she hates cars when he reveals he is an auto mechanic. Although Leos is over ten years older than Cleo, the two become friends, and, perhaps naively, Cleo hopes the relationship will become romantic. But the brooding Leos, who curiously doesn’t carry a cell phone, is dealing with his own troubled past.
