After nearly a year of living together, a young couple is separated when one partner is refused entry to Canada at the border. The encounter forces their relationship into an uncertain new reality, as they face the possibility of an indefinite period apart.
Inspired by director Clément Bompart’s own experience, "Lucía" explores love, migration and the complicated realities of being recognized as a couple in the eyes of the law. The film examines how an immigration decision based on rules and documentation can have deeply personal consequences, and how a single encounter with border security can change the course of a couple’s life.
Director: Clément Bompart
Producers: 1989 Productions, Clément Bompart
About the Film
“Lucía” was inspired by director Clément Bompart’s own experience of immigrating to Canada and navigating different stages of the immigration system. In August 2020, after his partner was refused entry to Canada, the couple faced the possibility of an indefinite period of separation.
The experience highlighted the gap between the reality of a relationship and how that relationship can be defined by immigration rules and documentation. A decision made at the border had immediate and significant consequences for the couple, prompting questions about what it means to be recognized as a couple in the eyes of the law.
The film grew from a desire to explore this experience on a human scale. Rather than focusing on the technical details of immigration law, “Lucía” considers the uncertainty and vulnerability that can arise when deeply personal relationships are subject to formal requirements and decisions made at the border.
Made during a period of significant political, economic and humanitarian uncertainty, the film also reflects on the broader reality of migration and the ways immigration systems can shape the lives of individuals and families.
