Enzo

2025 · 102 min

A sunlit, slow-burning coming-of-age story where class friction and a quiet crush simmer against the distant weight of war.

Directed by: Robin Campillo
Genres: Drama
Starring: Eloy Pohu, Maksym Slivinskyi, Pierfrancesco Favino

Overview: Enzo, 16, defies his bourgeois family’s expectations by starting a masonry apprenticeship, a path far removed from the prestigious life they had envisioned for him. In their chic villa in the sun-drenched South of France, tensions simmer as relentless questions and pressures weigh on Enzo’s future and dreams. On the construction sites, however, Vlad, a charismatic Ukrainian colleague, shakes up Enzo’s world and opens the door to unexpected possibilities.
