Come As You Are (Hasta La Vista)

Lads on tour but with a difference, this beautiful Belgian comedy sees three physically challenged boys embark on a european wine tour, but with a hidden agenda. Based on a real life experience, director Geoffrey Enthoven conveys a wonderful balance of hilarity and genuine emotion as he tells the story of virgins Josef who is blind; Philip who is paralysed from the neck down and wheelchair bound Lars, who are seeking to be suitably deflowered with help from a specialised spanish brothel accompanied by their robust carer. Both heartwarming and honest, this award-winning foreign language film is an intelligent tale of love, friendship and limitations.

Showing at UK cinemas from Friday 7 June
