During a film-school cohort party Julie she meets a mysterious man named Anthony. A few days later, Anthony invites Julie to a grand hotel and asks to stay with her for a few days. Ignoring her friends and borrowing large amounts of money from her parents, Julie surrenders to the relationship and prioritises Anthony’s needs. Based on writer/director Joanna Hogg’s real-life experiences The Souvenir elegantly elevates quotidian moments into a story of unforgettable love.
