Adapted from the graphic novel A Sister by Bastien Vivès, Le Bon’s feature film debut Falcon Lake is a poetic dive into the turbulent time between childhood and adolescence. The film stars Joseph Engel as Bastien, a shy teenager from Paris on a family summer vacation in Quebec. There, he meets and develops a relationship with Chloé, the 16-year-old daughter of his mother’s old friend Louise. She is a fan of folklore and local legends and tells Bastien a ghost is haunting a nearby lake.

CHARLOTTE LE BON worked as an actress with directors such as Michel Gondry and Jalil Lespert and made films with Robert Zemeckis and Sean Ellis. In 2018, she wrote and directed Judith Hotel, a short film presented at Cannes. Falcon Lake debuted in Director’s Fortnight at the 2022 Cannes Festival and was also screened at the Toronto International Film Festival.
