Synopsis

Rotten Tomatoes 85% high rating!

In the foothills of the Montagne Noire in the South of France, a mother and her son pass a week packing up the contents of their holiday home. As Autumn turns to winter and the trees that surrounds the isolated house give up their leaves, a figure appears and disappears in the forest. The reservoir in the hills drops into a river that descends through the forest and glides past the house. Touched by opera, myth and landscape, Departure narrates the story of the end of a marriage, the end of childhood and the end of an otherwise nuclear middle class family.

'Steggall indulges watery metaphors, but draws emotive work from Stevenson and pinpoints the uncertainty of life's tipping points.'-Kevin Harley, Total Film
