Sometimes you see a film that reminds you that cinema can still really do it to you. I don’t have enough superlatives for this. It’s absolutely stunning. See it, see it, see it

Two best movies of the year so far are Canadian independent works about love and the power of cinema. Must be something we can learn from this

'Blue Heron' is the most acclaimed film of 2026, and director Sophy Romvari says its existence can be credited to grants provided by the Canadian government at both the script and production stages.
“I really did make exactly the movie I wanted to make.... When I started making work in Canada, I was not aware of the privilege of living in a country that has access to arts funding. The version of this film that I would’ve made within the American system would be very, very different — and I don’t know if that one would’ve gotten distribution.” bit.ly/4ekNFn5

This weekend, see BLUE HERON — the transcendent feature debut from Sophy Romvari — in theaters c/o @janusfilms. 💙 bit.ly/4tqZc94
@SophyRomvari's feature debut is a lyrical and profound testament to the things we carry with us, masterfully chronicling the haze of a languid summer and the hyaline clarity of the moments that defined it.

An absolute dream to bring @SophyRomvari’s cinematic retelling of her personal story to life for BLUE HERON - the process was so organic thanks to her intuitive vision. This film was a long time coming, a whole lifetime. Love you so much , my friend. ❤️

For years I have really appreciated the @IndieWire camera survey and found it a great resource while in development on Blue Heron -- in fact it helped us settle on the ALEXA Mini.
