COMPETITION CLOSED

The quiet French countryside is about to get a little darker. When Fall is Coming opens in Australian cinemas on July 31, and we’ve got ten double passes to give away, thanks to Rialto Distribution.

From acclaimed director François Ozon (8 Women, Swimming Pool), this slow-burning mystery unfolds in the golden stillness of Burgundy’s autumn. Michelle (Hélène Vincent) leads a quiet life, foraging for mushrooms and minding her own business—until her sharp-tongued daughter (Ludivine Sagnier) shows up, unannounced, to leave her grandson for the holidays.

Hoping to mend their strained relationship, Michelle welcomes the intrusion. But one small misstep sends everything spiralling, with old wounds reopening and secrets rising to the surface. And when a familiar face—fresh out of prison—reappears in town, the fragile calm starts to crack.

With a Rotten Tomatoes score currently sitting at 96%, When Fall is Coming is a layered, atmospheric drama about regret, redemption, and the kind of buried guilt that grows quietly over time—like the most dangerous mushrooms, hiding in plain sight.
