Heroes Don't Die
Les héros ne meurent jamais
2019
Synopsis
Called out by a stranger in the street, Joachim believes he is the reincarnation of a Serbian soldier who died on the very day he was born. Troubled by such possibility, he embarks with his friend Alice and a small film crew on a journey to Bosnia in order to track down details of his former life.
Editorial
Combining elements of the ghost story and travelogue, Aude Léa Rapin casts Adèle Haenel as her stand-in in this, her formally daring (and metafictional!) feature debut. Heroes Don’t Die is truly unpredictable: a high-concept reflection on the Bosnian War and a film totally unbound from convention.
