Farador

Farador (2023)

Charles, Louis, and Guillaume are three friends who live together as roommates in the same house, where they spend all of their free time still playing the same Farador campaign they began as teenagers; their other friend Paul has recently moved out of the house and abandoned the game to live with his girlfriend. When Charles's sister Kim, who has recently broken up with her longtime Belgian boyfriend Tom after realizing that she might be a lesbian, moves into Paul's vacated room, her presence, and her determination to push her brother to finally take the plunge on his unrealized ambition to write and publish an erotic fantasy novel, upset the group dynamics and force them to make one last push to finally reach the Castle of Farador and end the game.

Wissenswertes

  • Gedreht in: Québec und Lassay-les-Châteaux

Farador is a Canadian fantasy comedy film, directed by Édouard Albernhe Tremblay and released in 2023. Expanded from his 2011 short film La Bataille de Farador, the film centres on a group of underachieving geeks who have never grown out of their teenage obsession with Farador, a role-playing game which is essentially a fictionalized version of Dungeons & Dragons.

Production and distribution

The film was shot in late 2021 and early 2022, principally in Quebec with a small amount of location shooting in France for the castle scenes. In May 2022, filming took place at the Château de Lassay in Lassay-les-Châteaux (Mayenne). It blends both realistic scenes set in the home, and fantasy scenes set in the game's internal reality.

The film's first preview trailer was released in September 2022.

It premiered at the 2023 Rendez-vous Québec Cinéma, before going into commercial release in April. Tremblay and the film's main cast members were guests at the 2022 Montreal Comiccon, and the 2023 Quebec City Comicon.
