Growing Down tells the story of a single father of two. He’s got a new girlfriend but everything goes south when his youngest son pushes his girlfriend’s daughter into an empty pool as consequence of an unsupervised game, getting the little girl into a coma. The father is the only witness, who decides to deny and convinces his son to align. He obeys but soon his guilt overrides his trust towards his parent. Clueless how to cope, he acts out and the lie that meant to protect finally separates them. The boy tries to confess only to be discredited by his father. He must find a way to speak up even if it potentially destroys them.

In celebration of the 25th European Film Festival (EUFF), this collaboration brings together 19 acclaimed films from across Europe to Malaysian screens. More than just a film showcase, this programme serves as a vibrant platform for cultural exchange, fostering mutual understanding and appreciation between Europe and Malaysia through the universal language of cinema. Audiences will have a rare opportunity to explore the richness, diversity, and creativity of European filmmaking - all within the atmosphere of MIFFest. As we celebrate EUFF’s milestone together, MIFFest invites you to discover stories, cultures, and connections, and perhaps even make new friends, through the shared experience of global cinema.
