EXCLUSIVITÉ : Extrait de Retrospekt
- La réalisatrice hollandaise Esther Rots présentera son deuxième film en avant-première mondiale au Festival de Toronto
Cet article est disponible en anglais.
Mette (Circé Lethem) is in the final phase of her rehabilitation, when one day Miller pays a visit, trying to get Mette to testify against “Frank”, Miller’s boyfriend, who apparently put Mette in a wheelchair. Mette can’t seem to remember anything. Then, left alone and in a haze of pain, medication and increasing anxiety, Mette has time to reminisce. Retrospect is life’s sense of humour or proof we are all living a fairy tale; it is easy to make sense of “it” all in hindsight, but the chaos of everyday life blurs one’s vision at the time the decisions are made.
This is what Esther Rots portrays in her second feature, Retrospekt [+lire aussi :
