Cannes’ 2020 Short Film Palme d’Or winner depicts the lengths a young man goes to in a bid to see his girlfriend one last time.

After 82 days apart, Adam decides to brave rough roads and familial resistance to be reunited with the woman he loves – no matter what it takes.

Meditative and moving, melancholy and meaningful, I Am Afraid to Forget Your Face – whose festival run has spanned Clermont-Ferrand, San Sebastián, Moscow, Reykjavik and Busan – is a profoundly tragic gut-punch hidden behind the veil of an unassumingly simple story.
