    presents I KILLED MY MOTHER Canada / 96 min. / Color and Black & White / 1.85:1 / Dolby Digital / French w/English subtitles A Kino Lorber Release Kino Lorber, Inc. 333 West 39 St., Suite 503 New York, NY 10018 Publicity Contacts: Rodrigro Brandão (212) 629-6880 ext. 12 [email protected] Matt Barry (212) 629-6880 ext. 31 [email protected] Synopsis I KILLED MY MOTHER is a semi-autobiographical first feature film by then 20-year-old Xavier Dolan. The film follows Huber Minel (Xavier Dolan), a 16-year-old Quebecois living in suburban Montreal with his mother, Chantale (Anne Dorval). On his way out of the closet, Huber struggles to communicate with Chantale, and their relationship grows increasingly tumultuous. In an effort to fill the void, he begins to increasingly rely on his boyfriend, Antonin, and teacher, Ms. Cloutier. Finding himself increasingly unable to express his feelings to Chantale, Huber channels his frustrations into painting, writing, and short films. When his grades begin to slip, Chantale enlists Huber's absent father to enroll him in boarding school. Feeling betrayed, Huber is unable to come out to his mother, even as he encounters violent homophobic bigotry. Huber plots a final confrontation, having Antonin spring him from boarding school to meet Chantale at their former family home. Director Bio Set to finish his fourth feature film before his 25th birthday, Xavier Dolan wrote, produced, directed, and starred in his first feature, I KILLED MY MOTHER, when he was only 20-years- old. Dolan wrote the semi-autobiographical film when he was 16 about his tumultuous relationship with his real-live mother and the process of coming out of the closet.
