About

Synopsis

When Fall Is Coming (Quand vient l'automne, 2024) is a darkly comic French thriller by François Ozon — watch it online on iFILM. Michelle is a retired grandmother in a quiet Burgundy village, content with her garden, her neighbour Marie-Claude and the prospect of a visit from her daughter and grandson.

A mushroom-picking trip before lunch goes badly wrong. Michelle serves what she believes is a hearty meal, and Valérie ends up in hospital. She recovers, but cuts off all contact between Michelle and her grandson as punishment. Left alone with guilt and silence, Michelle spirals — until Marie-Claude's son Vincent walks out of prison and decides to fix things in his own way. Hélène Vincent and Josiane Balasko play the two old friends with an easy warmth that makes the darker turns land harder.

Ozon has a gift for domestic comedies that are one conversation away from something sinister, and this one delivers exactly that tension. Autumn in Burgundy has never looked so quietly unsettling. Stream When Fall Is Coming (2024) online on iFILM.
