Forever Young (Catalan: Herois) is a 2010 Spanish drama film directed by Pau Freixas [es], who also co-wrote it alongside Albert Espinosa. It stars Eva Santolaria, Alex Brendemühl and Emma Suárez alongside Nerea Camacho and Lluís Homar.

The plot concerns a journey back to childhood (during the Summer of 1984) by means of a flashback brought by the memories of a disenchanted publicist (Sala) upon meeting with Cristina, that runs parallel to the subplot in the present time.^[1][2]

The film is a Media Films and Televisió de Catalunya production.^[4] Shooting locations included Palamós, the Sau Reservoir, Gavà, and Dosrius.^[1] It was shot primarily in Catalan.^[5]

The film premiered at the 13th Málaga Film Festival's official selection on 22 April 2010.^[6] It was theatrically released in Spain on 22 October 2010.

Mirito Torreiro of Fotogramas rated the film 3 out of 5 stars, highlighting "the clarity (and ability) with which it seeks its audience", while citing its certain sappiness as a negative point.^[7]

Andrea G. Bermejo of Cinemanía rated it 4 out of 5 stars, welcoming a Spanish film taking a deep dive into a childhood that is neither marginal nor traumatic.^[2]

Jordi Costa of El País wrote that even if Freixas and Espinosa's work dives into sheer cliché and cheesiness, it ends up emerging as "a solid commercial product".^[8]

Jonathan Holland of Variety considered that "more emotion than sentimentality comes through, despite some string-pulling" in a picture otherwise "all about laughter, tears and kids on bicycles riding through dappled forests".^[9]
