Before My Heart Falls (French: Avant que mon cœur bascule) is a Canadian drama film, directed by Sébastien Rose and released in 2012.[1] The film centres on Sarah (Clémence Dufresne-Deslières), a young con artist who regularly fakes a crisis on the side of the road so that she can rob men who stop to help her; however, after one of her cons results in a man's accidental death, she befriends the man's grieving widow Françoise (Sophie Lorain) while simultaneously trying to maintain her relationship with her crime boss Ji-Guy (Sébastien Ricard).[2]
The film premiered on September 14, 2012 at the Quebec City Film Festival,[3] before opening commercially on November 12.[4]
Brendan Kelly of the Montreal Gazette gave the film a mixed review, praising Dufresne-Deslières's performance as a "force of nature" but concluding that the film ultimately "just doesn't have the emotional punch it should have".[5]
The film received two Prix Jutra nominations at the 15th Jutra Awards in 2013, for Best Supporting Actor (Ricard) and Best Supporting Actress (Lorain).[6]
The film was broadcast by Ici Radio-Canada Télé in 2019.[7]
