A celebrated novelist reminisces about<br />

his secret teenage romance during a<br />

nostalgic return home.<br />

Cinephobia Releasing is proud to<br />

announce the North American release<br />

of the powerful and achingly tender<br />

LGBTQ festival darling LIE WITH ME from<br />

writer-director Olivier Peyon. The film, an<br />

adaptation of author Philippe Besson’s<br />

award-winning novel Lie with Me, brings<br />

an uncommon understanding of queer<br />

sex and desire in both the spring and<br />

autumn of life. all set in the bucolic rural<br />

European countryside. Permeated with<br />

passion and wistfulness reminiscent<br />

of Call Me By Your Name, LIE WITH ME<br />

will arrive <strong>February</strong> 15, 2024 on DVD<br />

and VOD, digital platforms, including<br />

AppleTV, Amazon Prime, Google Play,<br />

VUDU, and more.<br />

“LIE WITH ME is an assured, tender,<br />

erotic, intelligent and tragic drama, and<br />

by far the best French film I’ve seen in<br />

years. To paraphrase Nicole Kidman,<br />

heartbreak never felt so good”, said<br />

Ray Murray, President of Cinephobia<br />

Releasing.<br />

Celebrated novelist Stéphane Belcourt<br />

(Guillaume de Tonquédec) travels to his<br />

hometown after over 30 years. There,<br />

he meets Lucas (Victor Belmondo,<br />

grandson of Jean-Paul Belmondo), the<br />

son of Thomas, his secret teenage love.<br />

Lucas, inquisitive for information on his<br />

now deceased father, sets off turbulent<br />

emotions in the writer as his mind is<br />

flooded with memories of Thomas and<br />

their summer of love.<br />

The film contrasts the wintry present with<br />

the sun-splashed summer past when the<br />

shy, bespectacled Stéphane (Julien De<br />

Saint Jean) meets and falls for the rough<br />

and tumble Thomas (Rémy Gillet.) LIE<br />

WITH ME is erotic, tender, romantic and<br />

heartbreaking.<br />
