Turtles

November 15

Since Thom and Henri met 35 years ago, their love for each other has never faltered. The seemingly perfect life they had built in Brussels started to go awry when Henri retired from being a police officer. Now, Henri’s days seem to stretch endlessly, each one as bland as the next while his feelings for Thom are fading fast. They drift away from each other a little more each day, to the point that their house has become a battleground. Thom’s love for Henri remains strong though and he is not ready to give up. He will do anything to save his relationship and rekindle their love, even if that means asking Henri for a divorce.

Total Runtime: 83 mins

“Belgian filmmaker David Lambert explores couples’ relationships and queer love through different styles and genres, but always casting the same bittersweet gaze on the difficulty of loving and being loved. Films about love, with a twist, in other words, and his fourth feature film Turtles is no exception to this rule.” -Cineuropa
