Red Island

12A

“This visually exquisite, tender film about a boy growing up in a military air base on an former colony is a wonderful watch.”

The Guardian

“Red Island is an affecting, intensely personal film from Robin Campillo, inspired by his own childhood days on Madagascar.”

Financial Times

“The child’s eye view allows the situation to emerge as a sort of collage, often with striking visuals, such as the abstract effect created by glass as he peers into a party, or the way the pattern on an argonite table recalls Madagascar viewed from above.”
