Yedaya revives anti-war musical

BY MELANIE GOODFELLOW

Director Keren Yedaya is joining forces with Israeli rock star Dudu Tassa, his musical partner NiR Maimon and singer Neta Elkayam for a big-screen adaptation of cult 1980s anti-war rock opera Mami.

“It is one of the most beautiful and significant anti-war texts I have ever read or seen,” said Yedaya.

The film-maker, whose films Or (My Treasure), Jaffa and That Lovely Girl all premiered in official selection in Cannes, is scheduled to start shooting in November.

Yedaya hopes her new film will

be accepted into Cannes Film Festival next year so that the premiere will coincide with the 50th anniversary of the 1967 Six-Day War, which also marks 50 years of

Israeli occupation of the West Bank.

Elkayam is set to play the titular Mami, a downtrodden young woman from southern Israel who moves to Tel Aviv with her wardamaged husband, and is propelled to a position of power after an eccentric inventor rewires her brain. The surreal story sees her declare a final war to free people from their love of life.

Yedaya’s adaptation, provisionally entitled Red Fields for international markets, will transpose the tale to contemporary Israel and be set against real-life backdrops

Spanish actress Emma Suarez arrived in Jerusalem for last night’s opening-night premiere of Pedro Almodovar’s Julieta, in which she stars as a woman with a mysterious past. The film played in an openair screening at Sultan’s Pool, with Quentin Tarantino also on hand to accept a lifetime achievement award from the festival.

Film-maker Eran Kolirin is gearing up to shoot an adaptation of Palestinian writer Sayed Kashua’s 2006 tragi-comic novel Let It Be Morning in early 2017.

The director — whose latest film Beyond The Mountains And Hills screens in Jerusalem’s Israeli Feature Film Competition next week — won Kashua’s permission to adapt the work two years ago.

His adaptation revolves around Sami, a Palestinian accountant with Israeli citizenship who left his Arab home village years ago to take up a post in Jerusalem. When the Israeli army seals off the village while he is attending a family wedding, preventing him from returning to Jerusalem with his wife and young son, Sami finds himself questioning his identity and loyalties.

Adaf’s Darwin wins $100,000 Sam Spiegel prize Director Oren Adaf has won the $100,000 Sam Spiegel Alumni Fund for First Features award for his upcoming debut feature Darwin. The story follows a gay Israeli wildlife documentarian living in Namibia, who has been estranged from his Orthodox family in Israel for several years due to his sexuality.

Following their breakout foundfootage horror JeruZalem, which premiered as a work-in-progress at last year’s Jerusalem Film Festival and went on to play at more than 20 international festivals and sell into all major markets, fraternal film-making duo Doron and Yoav Paz have had a sequel greenlit by financier Epic Pictures Group.

JeruZalem 2 will pick up on events 10 years later, when the Israeli army has managed to contain the apocalyptic gate to hell discovered in the first film by placing a concrete dome over Jerusalem’s Old City. The sequel sees a man trying to find his daughter, who has joined a religious cult that exists inside the dome, as doomsday descends once again.

The film-making duo will return to Israel to shoot, and also film some scenes abroad. The cast will be split between international and Israeli actors. The production team is also plotting a spin-off VR experience to be released as an accompaniment to the sequel, which will not replicate the found-footage format used in the original.

“We could hardly have dreamed about being able to make a sequel,” said Doron Paz, on the success of the first film.

Tassa and Maimon are working on updated versions of the 20 songs in the musical. Hillel Mittelpunkt, creator of the original musical, has been consulted on the new version.

Yedaya and her long-time producer Marek Rozenbaum of Tel Aviv-based Transfax Film Productions are due to present the project at the Pitch Point industry event on Sunday. Rozenbaum — who puts the budget at around $1.2m (¤1.1m) — told Screen International he is already in talks with potential French and German partners.

Jerusalem-based Sam Spiegel Film & Television School launched the award for its alumni in 2015 in association with French producer ARP Selection, which is donating half the prize money.

The award — the largest in the Israeli film industry — will be presented to Adaf and his producer

Keren Michael, who handles the feature films at DMP, said the planned $1.3m (¤1.2m) budget has already been 60% financed out of Israel thanks to the backing of Israel Film Fund, broadcaster Channel 10 and the Gesher Multicultural Film Fund.

Dori Media has longstanding links with Kashua, having produced his popular sitcom Arab Labor, which gently exposed what it means to be a Palestinian living in Israeli society.

Rams’ Hakonarson joins the festival flock for jury duty Lior Elefant

Equality takes centre stage for Israeli film The Israeli industry continues to face a diversity challenge, with women making up only around 10% of working film directors.

One person battling to improve the situation is Lior Elefant, head of lobbying organisation Women in Film and Television Israel Forum.

Established in 2012, the forum works across Israel to promote the activities of female film professionals through networking events, conferences, screenings and dialogues with the five national film funds.

One of the organisation’s major endeavours has been lobbying the film funds to include an equal balance of women and men on their selection committees.

“Before, the people who picked the films were only men, and so all the films they picked were films made by men about men,” says Elefant. Since the forum argued its case for equal representation in 2012, all of the funds have agreed to instigate the practice.

One cause for optimism, she says, is that there is “almost an equal percentage of female and male students” across Israel’s 16 film schools. But the stumbling blocks remain when it comes to progressing from directing shorts to directing features.

“Once they finish school, women are having a harder time to continue,” says Elefant, noting that one reason is the societal demands often placed on women by some facets of Israeli culture.

“There’s huge pressure on them to have kids and stay home.”

Despite the continuing struggle, Elefant says the forum is serving its purpose: “We can see and hear the change all around us.”

It has been a busy year for Icelandic writer-director Grimur Hakonarson, whose film Rams played at more than 150 festivals and collected nearly 30 awards, beginning with the top prize at Cannes 2015 in Un Certain Regard. Now, he wants to give back to the festival community that showed him so much love over the past 14 months, and is serving on the jury for Jerusalem Film Festival’s inaugural international competition. “ When I get these jury requests, I see it as being part of this film community,” he says. “I have an obligation to be on the other side of the table.”

Not that he finds this “obligation” an onerous task; Hakonarson is a keen traveller who is excited to visit Israel for the first time. And, like most film-makers, he is keen to carve out dedicated time to watch and discuss films.

“When you have a popular film like Rams, you are at so many festivals, but you are not able to watch that many other films. On a

Grimur Hakonarson on the set of Rams

jury, I can see new films, I can sense what kind of waves are out there and maybe get inspired for my own projects.”

Hakonarson has a post-Rams project in the works called The County, and recently finished the first draft of the screenplay.

“It is about a middle-aged housewife who comes out of the closet in a small rural community

in Iceland,” he says. “It has a similar tone to Rams but is much more feminine and much more political. This time it’s about women and cows, not men and sheep.”

He plans to start shooting the film from February 2017 in Iceland, reuniting with Rams prod u c e r G r i m a r Jo n ss o n o f Reykjavik-based Netop Films and employing much of the same cast

as Rams, including the film’s ‘brothers’ Sigurdur Sigurjonsson and Theodor Juliusson in small roles. Hakonarson is aware that he might not experience the overwhelming acclaim he had for Rams again. “Everywhere I go, I get good reactions,” he says. “It almost feels too comfortable. I’m hoping my next film is going to be controversial.”

Raz hopes JFF berth will see Forest flourish

BY TOM GRATER

Cinematographer Guy Raz (Yossi, Big Bad Wolves) is here in Jerusalem with his debut feature as a director, the family drama We Had A Forest, which plays in the festival’s Israeli Feature Film Competition today.

The project had humble origins, with Raz eventually turning to Israeli crowdfunding platform HeadStart — launched in 2012 — to raise production finance after finding himself unable to source funds from elsewhere, and seeing his script turned down by Tel Aviv International Student Film Festival’s graduate competition.

“I had approached them [the Israel film funds] but these things can take a very long time,” explains Raz, who acted as director, writer, producer, editor and cinematographer on the film. “I couldn’t wait because there was only a short window when I could shoot due to

my cast and my work as a DoP.” The online campaign raised $13,000 (ILS50,000) from 146 backers, enough to shoot a 30-minute short, with all of his crew and actors — including Yaron Motola and Liron Weizman, who Raz knew from previous projects — agreeing to work for free.

However, salvation came in the form of the Gesher Multicultural

Film Fund, which informed the director eight days into the shoot that it would provide an extra $39,000 (ILS150,000) towards the budget, allowing him to make the snap decision to increase the running time to a feature-length 80 minutes as well as pay his crew and talent for an extra eight days of filming.

“We were making a feature film with a short-film budget. When the money arrived, it gave us a lot of confidence,” he says.

After wrapping We Had A Forest, which follows a family who suffer a tragic bereavement when the father leaves his child unattended in his car, Israel Film Fund provided an additional $52,000 (ILS200,000) towards post-production.

Looking forward, Raz is hoping the premiere here at JFF may lead to international festival berths later in the year.

SAM SPIEGEL INTERNATIONAL FILM LAB SPOTLIGHT

Wonders of nurture International sales companies and financiers are in town to get the first glimpse of new projects from the prestigious Sam Spiegel International Film Lab. Melanie Goodfellow reports

I

n just five years, Sam Spiegel International Film Lab has established itself as a world-class incubator for award-winning features. It is now well known how the Jerusalem-based lab supported this year’s foreign-language Oscar winner Son Of Saul when few others believed in the vision of firsttime Hungarian director Laszlo Nemes and writer Clara Royer. But the success of the lab — which selects a dozen projects a year, split roughly 50:50 between Israeli and international film-makers — extends much further.

Other films to have passed through the programme include Philippe Lacote’s Ivory Coast-set war drama Run, Nadav Lapid’s The Kindergarten Teacher, Alvaro Brechner’s Mr. Kaplan and Michal Vinik’s coming-ofage love story Barash, which premiered in the New Directors line-up of San Sebastian Film Festival in 2015. Further films include Burhan Qurbani’s Tribeca screener We Are Young, We Are Strong and Maximiliano Schonfeld’s mystical drought tale The Black Frost, which premiered in the Berlinale’s Panorama section this year.

“Our mission from the very first day was that the films must get made” says Renen Schorr, the founding director of Jerusalem’s Sam Spiegel Film & Television School, who spearheaded the lab and oversees the initiative alongside associate director Ifat Tubi.

“We’re happy to see that, from the first two editions, 75% of the projects have come to fruition.”

One of a kind “There’s no other lab like this in the world supported by a school,” suggests Schorr, noting the two labs on which it is based — Sundance and Torino — are linked to festivals. “It’s not part of the school’s mandate, no-one forced us to do it but it brings a new energy and a new freedom.”

After celebrating the Jury Prize for Son Of Saul in Cannes in 2015, the lab was represented on the Croisette again this year by Singaporean director Boo Junfeng’s much-praised prison executioner drama Apprentice,, which premiered in Un Certain Regard and sold to a number of distributors worldwide (the film will screen for a second time at the festival on July 10). Israeli film-maker Asaph Polonsky — an alumnus of the first lab — premiered One Week

www.screendaily.com

Asaph Polonsky’s One Week And A Day

And A Day, about a couple attempting to resume their lives after the death of their son, in Critics’ Week at Cannes and won the Gan Foundation prize for distribution (the film screens here on July 10 and 11).

Polonsky developed his screenplay under the guidance of film-maker Hagai Levi. “It was great to have a fresh perspective on it and working with Hagai Levi was a tremendous help,” the director says. “We would mostly talk about the characters and their journey.

“He sent me to see Midnight Run, which is now one of my favourite films. The biggest challenge was to write a new draft that made sense from one session to the next because you can come out with so many new ideas after a week at the lab.”

The lab was also present in the Cannes L’Atélier co-production market with Nepalbased film-maker Bibhusan Basnet and Pooja Gurung’s project The Whole-Timers, which portrays Nepal’s civil war through the eyes of a teenage Maoist guerrilla.

Other international projects in this edition include dark existentialist comedy The Woodcutter’s Story, the first feature from Finnish director Mikko Myllylahti, who co-wrote the script of compatriot Juho Kuosmanen’s The Happiest Maki Day In The Life Of Olli Maki, which won the Un Certain Regard prize.

Israeli projects include Shai CarmeliPollak’s The Voice Of The Sea, about a Palestinian boy living in a village that is cut off from the coast by Israel’s Separation Wall, who sets off on a perilous journey to the sea; and compatriot Margarita Linton-Balaklav’s Life Is Somewhere Else, about a teenage Russian immigrant confined to a West Bank settlement who befriends a Palestinian boy.

The pitching session will bring to a close seven months of development work in Jerusalem and online. First and second-time feature writers with projects at an advanced stage have been working under the guidance of script editors Clare Downs, Jacques Akchoti and Eran Riklis.

As in previous years, there will be two jury prizes — a winner and runner-up — worth a total of $70,000, donated by the Beracha Foundation. The chair of this year’s jury is Oscar-nominated cinematographer Slawomir Idziak, known for his work on Black Hawk Down and his early collaborations with Krzysztof Kieslowski.

He will be joined by Cannes Critics’ Week chief Charles Tesson; Celluloid Dreams founder Hengameh Panahi; French producer Carole Scotta of Haut et Court; Medienboard Berlin-Brandenburg film fund director Kirsten Niehuus; Eric Lagesse, president of Paris-based Pyramide Films; Eurimages chief Roberto Olla; and Katriel s Schory, head of Israel Film Fund. ■

Spotlight Jerusalem Film & Television Fund

The world is watching The dynamic Jerusalem Film & Television Fund has a wide brief that includes attracting local and international production to the city and jump-starting its animation and VFX sectors. Geoffrey Macnab reports

W

hy Jerusalem? For international film-makers, it might not be the first city that springs to mind as a place to bring their productions. Israel does not have its own soft-money incentive or tax shelter for the film industry (the Israeli government has long resisted calls from producers to set up such schemes). Outsiders are wary, too, about the political turbulence they might encounter.

That is why Jerusalem Film & Television Fund plays such a crucial role in the eco-system of Israeli cinema. The fund, set up in 2008, offers reassurance and guidance — as well as very generous cash rebates for international productions that set up camp in the city.

“The government does care about Jerusalem and so I convinced them the fund was important for our city,” says Jerusalem Film & Television Fund director Yoram Honig.

“We want Jerusalem to be up on the screen internationally.”

Honig sings the praises of the city, pointing to its thousands of years of history, its variety of architecture and its dynamic population. “It is the best setting any storyteller can imagine. It is a city of faith. It is multicultural, multinational — a place where in one square mile of the Old City is condensed everything you can imagine.”

The fund has eclectic tastes, backing everything from political dramas to romantic dramas, comedies and horror movies, including last year’s festival breakout JeruZalem.

“We are not afraid of political issues but the politics don’t have to be the main issue of the film,” says Honig. “It can be in the background as part of the drama.”

The fund’s support comes with very few strings attached. It has a war chest of $10m over the next two years for international films such as Joseph Cedar’s English-language debut, the US-Israeli collaboration Oppenheimer Strategies, which stars Richard Gere, Lior Ashkenazi, Michael Sheen and Charlotte Gainsbourg. The film shot in Jerusalem with support from the fund in 2015.

8 Screen International at Jerusalem July 8-9, 2016

Cedar was even able to recreate the New York interiors in Jerusalem.

For movies budgeted at $2.1m (ils8m) and above, the fund offers a cash rebate of 60% on every dollar spent in Jerusalem. For Israeli productions, the rebate can be even higher. Nir Bergman’s Saving Neta, Ori Sivan’s Harmonia and Eran Kolirin’s Beyond The Mountains And Hills are all playing in the festival’s Israeli Feature Films Competition strand, and received support from Jerusalem Film & Television Fund. Producers can combine support from the fund with backing from other national funds. “That’s why everybody likes us,” smiles Honig.

Hop, Skip & Jump Honig has recently been trying to kick-start an animation industry in Israel. Animated projects created in Jerusalem include Star Darlings, made by Snowball Studios for Disney Junior Channel, and Barbie Dreamtopia, made for the toy company Mattel. Several further projects are on the way to the city, including a new film from Canada’s Corus-Nelvana.

This year at Jerusalem Film Festival, the fund is launching its Hop, Skip & Jump programme for animation. The idea is to develop projects with Israeli animators and give them the chance to attend workshops with leading animators from around the world. The scheme is supported by international partners Sony Pictures Animation, DHX Media and Corus-Nelvana.

The fund is also boosting the city’s nascent VFX sector, and leading New York visualeffects company The Artery has recently opened a Jerusalem office.

“We want to do international work here but we also want to bring this side of the business into Israel,” says Honig. “Israeli films are usually very realistic, even hyperrealistic. We want to encourage Israeli filmmakers to go into the fantasy world, the effects world, and also to do larger things.”

As Jerusalem becomes more attuned to film-making, the logistics of shooting in the

city have become much easier. “Before we invited international productions, we went to school with Israeli productions,” is how Honig describes the process through which the fund improved the production experience in Jerusalem.

A ‘one-stop shop’ has been set up within the mayor’s office dedicated to solving production issues, such as permits for shooting in certain locations or putting producers in touch with police and fire departments, as well as with local property owners.

Some big projects have come to Jerusalem, at least partly because of the fund. When NBC’s action-thriller TV series Dig starring Jason Isaacs and Anne Heche shot in Jerusalem, part of the Old City was closed down for filming. Some 20 trucks of equipment and a crew 300 strong were brought in.

But the production’s stay was curtailed by the 2014 conflict in Gaza. Such upheaval cannot be ignored. Nonetheless, Honig argues that anyone shooting in Jerusalem “has at least half of the world’s attention… the minute you say ‘Jerusalem’, half the world wants s to know a bit more about what’s going on”. ■

NADAV LAPID INTERVIEW

Lifting the veil Inspired by his time as a wedding photographer, Nadav Lapid has transformed the complex feelings he has about love, intimacy and marriage into a 40-minute feature. Melanie Goodfellow reports

F

rom The Diary Of A Wedding Photographer has its roots in Nadav Lapid’s experience supplementing his income while a student at Sam Spiegel Film & Television School in Jerusalem. Showcased here today as a special screening, the mediumlength dark comedy-drama made its world premiere in Critics’ Week at Cannes in May, and won plaudits for its portrayal of a jaded wedding photographer as he captures the big day of two couples against the backdrop of the dunes and Roman ruins in the coastal town of Caesarea.

Behind the facade of the romantic beach setting, beautiful brides in white dresses and grooms in smart suits, all is not well as neither bride really wants to tie the knot. The photographer, himself grappling with concepts of love and intimacy, becomes a disruptive, subversive — murderous even — third wheel.

“He is supposed to be ‘eternalising’ the love of the couple but ends up deconstructing it,” says Lapid of his protagonist. “The camera glorifies and de-glorifies their love. At the same time, the photographer is also haunted by inner desires and doubts and a longing for a certain intimacy.”

Ohad Knoller, best known internationally for his performance in Yossi & Jagger, about two soldiers who fall in love while stationed on the border with Lebanon, plays the photographer opposite rising actors Naama Preis and Alin Levy. The latter is a former reality TV star now carving out a career on the big screen.

Shunning labels France’s Cahiers Du Cinéma called From The Diary Of A Wedding Photographer “the most-impossible-to-classify film” in Cannes this year. Lapid relishes this response: “People were laughing, then they would stop laughing, or laugh and not know why. A lot of people were shaken. I like the fact people came out with things digging into their minds and souls without being able to pinpoint what exactly.”

The film is inspired by Lapid’s questioning of the symbolism and meaning of weddings, provoked by his own experiences behind the camera capturing couples as they celebrated their marriage.

Nadav Lapid

‘The film is a declaration of war against the industry of love and the institutionalisation of love’ Nadav Lapid, film-maker

From The Diary Of A Wedding Photographer; (below) The Kindergarten Teacher

“I shot something like 600 to 700 films over a three-and-a-half year period. It was intense,” he recalls. “In the beginning it wasn’t so bad, but over time I began to develop a horrible aversion and hostility to this ceremony, and I couldn’t distinguish between the couples and the weddings.

“The only way I could shoot a wedding was by downing four or five whiskies.

That’s one advantage of weddings, there’s always a free open bar. I developed my own ritual… as soon as the official ceremony was completed, I would rush to the bar.”

A decade later, From The Diary Of A Wedding Photographer is “a declaration of war against the industry of love and the institutionalisation of love”, according to Lapid. At the same time it explores “love, intimacy, loneliness and anti-loneliness”, he explains.

Running to just 40 minutes, From The Diary Of A Wedding Photographer is a low-budget production that was conceived and shot over an 18-month period.

Lapid and producer Osnat HandelsmanKeren of Tel Aviv-based Pie Films, who also produced Lapid’s The Kindergarten Teacher, decided to pull together the medium-length work while the director waited for finance to come through on his next feature-length project.

“Making movies has become a long and institutional process. The idea of doing something more spontaneous like this appealed to me,” says Lapid. “It’s the closest I could get to being a rock star in the sense you have an idea and a year later you’re on stage with your new song.

“I even like the idea that commercially it has a problematic duration.

For me, it was like a short novel, a reflection, a poem… although it looks like the process was very quick, I guess I’ve actually been preparing for this movie half my life.”

His new project has the working title Micro Robert and is about a young Israeli man getting to grips with life in Paris. Casting has begun, with shooting set to start next year. Paris-based Les Films des Tournelles s is producing. ■

Weiner Reviewed by Tim Grierson

Aquarius Reviewed by Wendy Ide A magnetic central performance from Sonia Braga is the driving force in a relatively conventional but compelling drama from Brazil’s Kleber Mendonca Filho. This second fiction feature (he also made a full-length documentary, Critico) follows his acclaimed debut, Neighboring Sounds.

But while it shares a setting — both films take place in the city of Recife in Brazil — and a fascination with the relationships between residents and their buildings, this film lacks some of the formal rigour that made his debut so arresting. But this hardly matters, with Braga giving one of the most extraordinary performances of her career.

Her wonderful creation, the spirited 65-year-old former music journalist Clara, is a joy to behold. And the lack of complex, sexual leading roles for women over 50 is a huge selling point for this portrait of a prickly, potsmoking thorn in the side of bullying property developers. The film is ostensibly about Clara and her dogged refusal to sell her apartment, even though she is the last inhabitant in the block. But this serves as a jumping-off point for a commentary on social divisions in modern Brazil, and a warm and perceptive study of the dynamics within an extended family. Sales should be strong and festival interest is assured.

The device of the unscrupulous property developer is a timely theme. Clara comes from privilege — the contested apartment, named Aquarius, is on the upscale Avenida Boa Viagem — and she is positioned as both a maverick rebel standing up against ‘the man’ and a stubborn old woman who is forcing the other residents to miss out on a potential windfall.

A three-chapter structure divides the story into segments dealing with Clara’s Hair, Clara’s Love and Clara’s Cancer. We are introduced to her as a younger woman, in 1980. She has survived cancer and is hosting a birthday party for her aunt. Winding forward to the present day, it is not hard to see the parallels between Clara as an older woman and the forthright aunt. Filho makes minimal use of flashbacks, but those he does allow give a playful sense of the accumulated history of the building.

Favouring an unhurried pace, Filho takes the time to let us get to know Clara. And while the moments of drama are small and intimate, the effect is engrossing.

Slickly packaged but also consistently entertaining, even illuminating, documentary Weiner takes the viewer inside the 2013 New York City mayoral bid of disgraced politician Anthony Weiner, capturing both the hope and humiliation fuelling his shot at redemption.

A former congressman who championed liberal causes and working-class voters, Weiner had seen his legacy destroyed by a 2011 sexting scandal, and directors Josh Kriegman and Elyse Steinberg follow in brutal detail how that embarrassment still clung to — and ultimately scuppered — his campaign.

Kriegman, who worked as Weiner’s chief of staff when the politician was in Congress, and Steinberg (The Trial Of Saddam Hussein) were given incredible access to the 2013 campaign, their cameras following Weiner, his wife Huma Abedin (a close aide to Hillary Clinton) and various staff members. One suspects Weiner allowed such access partly to show the world that his weakness for having racy conversations with women he met online — and sending them explicit photos — was a thing of the past, and that the tireless work he had done for ordinary New Yorkers would continue as mayor.

Unfortunately, that decision comes back to haunt him, although not immediately. In its opening reels, Weiner finds its protagonist full of optimism, acknowledging his personal failings but determined not to let them overshadow his commitment to his constituents. But disaster looms. Kriegman and Steinberg are there to document a second sexting scandal. The fly-on-the-wall cameras capture the tense moments between Weiner and his wife, as well as the difficult strategy sessions in which the team tries to figure out a way to spin the politically damaging reports as more women come forward with their stories.

If Weiner is not as penetrating a look at modern politics as, say, The War Room, there is no denying the wealth of glancing insights Kriegman and Steinberg have compiled. Plus, Weiner and Abedin are compelling on-screen presences and, together, a notable example of a modern-day power couple. On one level, the film can be read as an engaging profile of a campaign in peril — on another, it asks what the toll can be on individuals who give themselves over to public service.

Indignation Reviewed by Anthony Kaufman

Slack Bay Reviewed by Jonathan Romney French auteur Bruno Dumont pushes the boat out once again, this time into murky comic waters and the mussel beds of northern France’s Cote d’Opale. This black comedy of manners is a follow-up to his 2014 TV mini-series L’il Quinquin. The idea of a comedy from France’s archauteur of existential solemnity seemed counter-intuitive, but L’il Quinquin attracted 1.6 million viewers on French TV and scored a respectable standalone theatrical presence. Despite its starry cast and stunning production values, however, the period-set Slack Bay (Ma Loute) seems unlikely to win a vast following either in France or abroad, as its humour is too downright weird.

The setting is 1910 on France’s northern coast, where weatherbeaten locals the Bruforts — headed by lifeboat skipper dad ‘The Eternal’ (Thierry Lavieville) — make a living by picking mussels and ferrying holiday-makers across stretches of water, Dad and saturnine son Ma Loute (Brandon Lavieville) sometimes carrying them bodily.

Every summer, Slack Bay, site of a mock-Egyptian folly, is holiday venue to posh townies the Van Peteghems: spouses André and Isabelle (Fabrice Luchini, Valeria Bruni Tedeschi), their daughters, André’s sister Aude (Juliette Binoche) and her progeny Billie (Raph), a husky-voiced beauty, apparently a girl who dresses as a boy, or possibly vice versa. Billie seems the only sane one among a hysterical bunch who are forever oohing and aahing about the sublimity of the landscape, or variously swooning, lapsing into undignified pratfalls or indulging — in Luchini’s case — in quasiPythonesque silly walks. Also in the vicinity are a Laurel and Hardy duo of bumbling cops investigating some mysterious disappearances.

Dumont watchers will note Slack Bay repeats themes he has worked several times since his 1999 quasi-policier, Humanity. In many ways, it is a period remix of L’il Quinquin — bloody crimes, dopey cops, taciturn locals and the deliberately provocative casting of ungainly non-professionals. There is a new ingredient, however, the nest of preening gentlefolk, which gives Luchini, Bruni Tedeschi and Binoche the chance to crank their eccentricities to the grotesque extreme. The comic effect is surprising at first, but quickly becomes grinding.

Gala

A college freshman doesn’t come of age so much as slam into the strangeness of adulthood and first love in Indignation, a minor-key drama enriched by a genuinely offkilter tone that borders on angry paranoia. Based on Philip Roth’s 2008 novel, the directorial debut of longtime screenwriter and producer James Schamus exudes a tasteful reserve, but actor Logan Lerman cuts through the seeming gentility in a performance that seethes with his character’s burgeoning arrogance and cynicism.

Indignation was picked up by Summit for North American distribution and, with no marquee names populating the cast, good reviews will be essential for this proudly peculiar period drama that is not an easy sell for arthouses.

Lerman plays Marcus, an exceptionally bright young man who leaves 1950s New Jersey to go to college in Ohio, where he is one of the campus’s few Jewish students. Focused on getting into law school, he is nonetheless bewitched by beautiful blonde Olivia (Sarah Gadon), whose sexual assertiveness both attracts and repels him.

Indignation has all the earmarks of a prestige picture but the film’s overly refined air is a bit of a feint. In fact, this university’s seemingly comforting conservatism and welladorned facilities soon prove to be a stifling environment for Marcus, who appears to have picked up some of the anxiety that riddles his butcher father (Danny Burstein).

Schamus seeds the film with these anxieties and the fears of the era so delicately that they seem to transfer over to college for Marcus, whose attraction to Olivia is mitigated by his fear of being inexperienced with girls.

The narrative is not being pushed forward, per se, but Schamus’s no-fuss directorial style helps to weave a blunt cultural snapshot of 1950s America, as Cold War paranoia, suffocating conformity and a blossoming youth rebellion conspire to turn the country into a powder keg.

Lerman’s portrayal of Marcus is knowingly stilted; he has conceived the character as intellectually superior to his peers, and Marcus makes no apologies for his haughty demeanour. The only thing that seems to please him is Olivia whom, we learn, is a troubled soul. But, again, Indignation does not paint her with the usual brushstrokes. Like Olivia, the film has a benign, even familiar surface — but underneath are hints that nothing is quite right.
