Film Movement is proud to announce the release of BREATHE, the second feature by actress-turned-director Mélanie Laurent (Inglorious Basterds, Beginnings). A taut coming-of-age tale of the depths and escalating passions in female friendships, BREATHE is Ms. Laurent’s assured adaptation of the French young-adult novel of the same name. Starring talented newcomers Joséphine Japy and Lou De Laâge as two young girls whose all-consuming friendship takes a dark and dangerous turn, BREATHE is scheduled to open in New York on September 11 at the IFC Center and in Los Angeles on September 18, followed by a national release.

Charlie (Joséphine Japy) is seventeen and bored. Her estranged parents are too caught up in their own drama to pay much attention to her. School holds no surprises either and Charlie grows tired of her staid friends. Enter Sarah (Lou De Laâge), a hip new transfer student who brings with her an alluring air of boldness and danger. The two girls form an instant connection. S
