Shattering the
glass ceiling
The heated Female Gaze debate on Saturday
investigated the under-representation of
women in the documentary world.
By Melanie Goodfellow
“The essential question is whether women are
under-represented. Does a glass ceiling exist in
the documentary industry and how are women
represented in documentaries,” said IDFA
director Ally Derks in her opening remarks.
The debate was part of a larger focus on women in documentary by IDFA this year, which
also features a sidebar of 28 films by women,
selected by 15 of the world’s top female
documentarians, including Kim Longinotto,
Barbara Kopple and Rakhshan Bani-Etamad,
all of whom attended Saturday’s event.
As part of the focus, IDFA also conducted its
own study into how women fared at the festival, the results of which were unveiled at the
debate. It revealed that while the festival does
not do badly in comparison to festivals like
Cannes, Sundance and Berlin, there was still
considerable room for improvement.
According to the statistics running from 2003
to 2013, a total of 40,581 directors submitted
films to the festival in that period, 15,006, or
37.1%, of whom were women.
In total 4,068 films were submitted for the
period with 1,398, or 33.2%, by women.
On the awards front, 33 female-directed films
had picked up top prizes at the festival over the
past decade, against 76 awards for male directed pictures. Only one woman has ever won the
top prize: Danish Pernille Rose Gronkjaer’s The
Monastery – Mr Vig & the Nun.
The stats showed that juries consisting predominantly of men – 35 out of the 53 juries
over the last ten years – were less likely to
award female directors.
Possible solutions, suggested and thrashed
out over the course of the two-hour debate,
included quotas, equal gender juries and a new
Bechdel-style test, suggested by Debra Zimmerman, executive director of Women Make
Movies. “It could include criteria like 50% of
subjects and 50% of experts being women,”
she said.

Going underground
Fresh from prying on the furtive activities of Austrians in their cellars (the subject
of his new doc Im Keller / In the Basement), Ulrich Seidl is turning his eyes toward
Napoleonic times. By Geoffrey Macnab
Speaking during IDFA, Seidl revealed he is
hatching a new feature, a historical drama set
in the late 18th century in “the milieu of the
poorest of the poor.” These are young people,
returning from war and having to engage in
criminal activities to survive. Its main character
is Herr Grasl, a real-life Robin Hood-like
figure who fought back against the authorities.
Ask the director about his new cellar doc
(screening in Framing Reality) and why he is
so fascinated by Austrians’ basements and he
replies: “long ago, I realised that the average
Austrian likes to spend their leisure time in
their cellar engaging in their passions, hobbies
and obsessions.” Cellars, Seidl elaborates, aren’t
just the places where Austrians relax. They are
also “places of fear, darkness and criminality.”
Yes, Seidl has a cellar in his own house but, no,
he doesn’t use it for sado-masochistic activities
or for drinking toasts to Adolf Hitler or for
target practice. Instead, he keeps his wine
down there. “I was first confronted with cellars
as a child because my grandmother had one
in which she stored food,” the Austrian reminisces. “In Vienna, there are these multi-family
tenement blocks which have coal cellars below
them. Where I live near Vienna, I have a large
wine cellar in the rock.”
Parts of Im Keller seem very comic. However,
the director insists he did not set out to mock
his subjects. Whether or not they have cellars,
everyone – Seidl believes – has “two sides to
them… they will see the film and perhaps
think about that and find that part of themselves in it.”
Seidl’s fictional films (for example, his recent
Paradise trilogy) have a documentary-like
feel. Meanwhile, his docs seem as carefully
constructed as fictional films. “In the Basement film, it was clear that it was going to be
a documentary,” Seidl says. “In the case of a
documentary, you have people who are playing
themselves, who are authentic. They are not
taking on a fictional role. It is their life and
their convictions. Obviously, that is different
in the context of a fiction film.”
“Fear, darkness
and criminality”
Seidl has a cordial relationship with the
subjects of Im Keller. Many came to Venice
for the film’s world premiere and enjoyed the
doc. “They all approved of it because what was
being shown was their lives and they stand by
their lives.” The Nazi enthusiasts stayed away.
Seidl couldn’t guarantee their safety. (“That
would have been too dangerous, because you
can’t know what people are going to do at a
premiere. What would have happened if somebody in the audience had got up and decided
they wanted to attack Herr Ochs, the owner
of the cellar. I wouldn’t want to expose him to
something like that.”)
So is he a demonstrative director? “I am very
quiet. Occasionally I do scream. But not as
much as Haneke!”

Kids, cinema get new slots at Forum
Netherlands filmmaker Heddy Honigmann, Chilean
Maite Alberdi, Iranian Maryam Ebrahami, Danish Janus
Metz and the UK’s Patrick Collerton will be among the
directors pitching their upcoming projects at the IDFA
Forum which kicks off Monday. By Melanie Goodfellow
“As in previous editions, we’ve got a great selection from all
over the world,” says IDFA industry chief Adriek van Nieuwenhuyzen on the eve of the three-day co-financing event.
“We had a lot of good projects from the UK this year – which
is a reflection of its funding system, but also of the fact there’s
a lot of great talent. Israel’s also back. France and Germany
were strong as usual,” she continues.
“Asia isn’t as present as last year, although we’ve got two great
projects from China: Weaving, which was an IDFA Bertha
Fund grantee, and China’s Van Gogh, which is a co-production with the Netherlands. There’s also a Latin American
presence with two projects from Chile.”
Former Forum pitches
Chilean project The Grown-Ups – revolving around a group
of Santiago friends with Down’s syndrome who have attended
the same school for the last 40 years – is the latest project
from Maite Alberdi, whose debut film Tea Time was pitched
at the Forum in 2011, and is showing in the First Appearance
Competition.
It is just one of 18 former Forum pitches playing in IDFA’s
official festival selection this year alongside Camilla Nielsson’s
Democrats, Hanna Polak’s Something Better to Come, Laurent
Bécue-Renard’s Of War and Men and James Spione’s Silenced.
Other Forum returnees include Denmark’s Metz, who
famously pitched his award-winning Afghan frontline tale
Armadillo at the Forum in 2009. He is back with Between Two
Worlds exploring the topic of “mail-order brides” through the
tale of a Thai woman running such a service from the small
Danish village where she lives with her husband.
Docs4Cinema Pitches
For the first time, projects in the fledgling Docs4Cinema
category, aimed at films with theatrical potential, will also
be pitched at a Round Table Pitches session on Monday, 24
November. The line-up includes Norwegian Benjamin Ree’s
Magnus, a portrait of chess grandmaster and latterly fashion
model Magnus Carlsen; Notes on Blindness by British duo Peter Middleton and James Spinney, revolving around a recently
blind academic’s audio diary of what it means to lose one’s
sight; and Collerton’s The Nine Lives of James Brett, about a
former drugs dealer who is trying to convince Afghani farmers
to grow pomegranates rather than poppy seeds for opium.
“It’s a category we introduced last year but we just laid on
one-to-one meetings last year. We’re seeing a lot of distributors as well as broadcasters signing up for the session, which is
encouraging,” says Van Nieuwenhuyzen.
Theatrical-focused distributors and sales agents attending
the event this year, she notes, include California-based ro*co
films, Germany’s Mind Jazz, Danish LevelK, French Jour2Fete
and Doc & Film International. As in previous years, there will
be other specialist Round Table Pitches Sessions devoted to
arts and culture as well as cross-media.

Side events and new intiatives
Alongside the pitching and one-to-one meetings, the Forum
programme also includes two co-production focused events,
the Co-producers Summit and RealYoung, aimed at bringing
makers of documentaries for younger generations together.
There will also be a presentation of WHY SLAVERY?, a follow up project to WHY POVERTY? which was watched by
millions around the globe.
Turn up the Volya
It’s All Academic
IDFA 2014 is busy for
Rotterdam-based Volya
Films, run by Denis
Vaslin and former
IDFA Forum chief
Fleur Knopperts. The
team is co-producer
on François Verster’s
Masters selection The
Dream of Shahrazad,
pitched at the Forum
2012, and is majority
producer on the acclaimed Naziha’s Spring
(Gülsah Dogan),
Fleur Knopperts
screening in the Dutch
Competition. “The
film is about female emancipation in the local Moroccan
community,” Knopperts explains.
The company currently has three docs in advanced production. Debut director Marleine van der Werf ’s The Market,
about the stresses suffered by market traders when a new
covered market is constructed in Rotterdam, is a co-pro
with RTV Rhineman and broadcaster NCRV. Ingeborg
Jansen’s Schuldenaars (Debtors, broadcast March 2015),
made with Buddhist broadcaster BOS, is a study of the
effect of bankruptcy on small businesses.
Waiting for Giraffes by Marco di Stefanis is supported by
the Netherlands Film Fund, CoBO, EO broadcaster (evangelical), the Media Fund, Creative Europe and VAF, and
co-produced with Belgian Timescape. The film, currently
shooting ahead of late 2015 delivery is about a zoo in the
Occupied Territories that wants to re-introduce giraffes.
“Like the Palestinians themselves, the zoo wants to be
recognised internationally,” Knopperts says.
“The docs we do work on three levels,” comments Vaslin.
“Local, national and international; we try to have at least
two of these aspects in place and if possible three, such as
A Perfect Game (about Rotterdam baseball players trying to
make it in the US, currently at finance stage), which is perfect. We like society and political subjects, but ones which
tell human stories. And told visually. It can be a chaotic
visual style, as long it corresponds to the film. And we are
not repetitive.” Nick Cunningham
Artur Liebhart of Poland-based Planete+ Doc Film Festival
has confirmed two IDFA 2014 titles and is negotiating two
more for his Planete Doc Academy programme. Launched in
2011, the programme uses high profile, contemporary docs
for film education aimed at middle school, high school and
university students. The confirmed titles are Marcus Vetter’s
The Forecaster, selected for main competition and Pixadores
in First Appearance.
In addition Liebhart’s distribution outfit Against Gravity
is one of a number of European distributors selecting films
under the new EDN umbrella initiative Moving Docs whose
aim is to create innovative outreach strategies and provide
opportunities for urban and rural European audiences to enjoy regular screenings of documentary films through a wide
variety of media and platforms.
In 2014, for the third time Planete+ Doc Film Festival took
place simultaneously in Warsaw and Wroclaw with in-depth
filmmaker masterclasses, discussion panels, Q&A sessions
and, most importantly according to Liebhart, a “wealth of
inspiring documentary films from across the globe.”
“I don’t think that, with the blessings of modern technology
and media, the festival must be tied to one location. There
are plenty of possibilities when it comes to reaching wide
audiences and promoting awareness. You are free to expand
your event in ways that were hard to imagine a decade ago. It
is very exciting both for us and for our supporters. This nomadic form of festival growth is something I strongly believe
in,” Liebhart comments. Nick Cunningham
Pixadores
Vitaly Mansky

According to a report on Russia’s non-governmental news
agency Interfax, Minister of Culture Vladimir Medinsky said
last Wednesday that none of Mansky’s projects – from his
films to the cutting-edge Artdocfest the director helped create, will get state funding from now on.
“Not a single one of Mansky’s projects, including Artdocfest,
will ever get any money, as long as I am Minister of Culture,”
Interfax quoted Medinsky as saying openly to journalists.
Mansky, who is at IDFA to present his latest project Close
Relations – The Ukraine Crisis, My Family and I at the Forum
– says the openness of Medinsky’s threat is a worrying development. “His declaration is a sign of support and loyalty
for those in power and their ideology,” Mansky says. “But
there is another important detail; this is the first time, to my
knowledge in post-Soviet times, that a state authority has said
that a person can be deprived of his or her professional activities because of their political views.”
“In Soviet times, this was commonplace – take, for example,
the treatment of Solzhenitsyn, but, this is the first time I’ve
encountered this in post-Soviet Russia. It sets a worrying
precedent,” he continues.
The filmmaker, whose last film Pipeline played in the Green
Screen section of IDFA last year, says the funding boycott is
not about his films, but about his political views. “I haven’t
called for a revolution, I’ve simply said I think it’s wrong to
occupy the territory of another country and put troops in,”
says Mansky.
Mansky said last week’s blacklisting comment follows funding for Close Relations – The Ukraine Crisis, My Family and I
suddenly being withdrawn over the summer, even though he
knew that the project had been approved by the Ministry of
Culture’s expert committee.
Mansky will pitch the project, which already has the support
of Estonian, Latvian, Finnish, Lithuanian and Polish broadcasters, at the Docs4Cinema Round Table on Monday.

New screens for docs
Speaking at IDFA, DocHouse Director Elizabeth Wood reveals further details of the
plans for the new ‘Bertha DocHouse Screen’ at the renovated Curzon Bloomsbury in
the Brunswick Centre, London, now due to re-open on February 5, 2015.
By Geoffrey Macnab
Wood will be programming a 60-seat cinema
screen that will be dedicated to showing documentary all the year round. “We like to think of
it really as a documentary centre,” Wood says of
the new Curzon screen. “We want it to be very
much inclusive of other organisations.”
The new Bertha DocHouse screen may be
located in the Curzon Bloomsbury complex
but, Wood states, it will be “entirely independent” in its programming. A “fluid and creative”
partnership is envisaged with Curzon. Films that
start their lives at the DocHouse screen could
conceivably end up showing across the Curzon
network of cinemas. The films that Wood and
her team programme will also be offered to the
Curzon Home Cinema platform.
“From the DocHouse point of view, the more
documentary screenings the better,” Wood
comments. On a larger, 150-seat Curzon screen,
Wood will be continuing the ‘DocHouse Thursdays’ screenings showcasing the best in international documentary. Some docs may have their
premieres on the bigger screen and then run
for the rest of the week in the 60-seat cinema.
Others may show only in the smaller cinema,
but Wood is promising any film programmed a
decent run.
The new doc screen is also committed to programming what Wood calls “pure observational
films around the world that would never get a
run in a cinema, but are very visual and very
beautiful.” Titles being lined up for this strand
include Summer Pasture, about nomadic herders
in Tibet, Walking Under Water, which follows
compressor divers from the Badjao tribe in
Mabul Island, and Stream of Love.
Wood also expects to re-show Village at the End
of the World and festival favourite Happiness.
Every Sunday afternoon, the cinema will show
docs on the subject of ‘art as revolution.’ The
doc screen won’t just be reserved for films that
have secured distribution. “We’re very interested
in showing films that don’t have distribution.”
During a special matinee slot, Wood plans to
programme various classic docs. DocHouse is in
talks with various universities and colleges about
making these screenings part of their courses.
Together with Open City, the Bertha DocHouse
Screen will also be organising ‘10 of the best
from the DocHouse Archive.’
DocHouse was founded by Wood in 2002. In
that period, docs were disappearing from British
TV screens and were becoming harder and harder for British audiences to see. A decade on, docs
are being released in British cinemas in record
numbers. “I am really someone on a soapbox,”
Wood declares of her mission at DocHouse. “I
want to continue the form. I want to ensure that
documentary survives in all its quality. I believe
it is the way we learn about the world.”
The launch of the new Bertha DocHouse screen
at the Curzon Bloomsbury comes as exhibitor/
distributor Picturehouse is also planning a dedicated screen for docs at its new site in London’s
West End. “We will probably be in competition
for some films. There is nothing to be done
about that. I think it is great that documentary
is getting this kind of attention,” Wood says.
“Documentary is established in the cinema.
That is a very good thing!”
Doing the Polly maths
Emmy-nominated producer Polly Fryer is at
Docs for Sale 2014 to drum up festival and
sales interest in Chris Dudman’s The Day that
Changed My Life about the devastating earthquake that struck New Zealand in February
2011. Commissioned by TVNZ and finished
a week before IDFA, 44 and 58-minute versions of the film are available.
“In New Zealand, I don’t think we have spent
enough time exploring the psychological and
human spirit aspects of the event, both on
individuals and on ourselves as a nation,”
Fryer comments. “So by showing six accounts
of that day with never-before-seen archive
Polly Fryer
a
idf ws
e
n
and beautifully shot vignettes and dramatic
reconstructions, we are hoping to bring
out that human spirit and courage and give
people a way to think about the effects of the
earthquake.” She points out that a total of
110 interviews were conducted so there is potential for a feature-length version of the film.
Fryer stressed how she believes the docudrama format powerfully enhances the story.
“There is no voice over. It is the stories wholly
told by the interviewees, and the reconstructions bring more emotional depth, and
provide more visceral information for the
audience.” Nick Cunningham

Top dog
Tracking shot
Dogwoof, the UK’s leading documentary distribution
company, is celebrating its 10th birthday this year. The
occasion will be marked on Tuesday night with a special IDFA party (jointly hosted with Sheffield Doc Fest).
By Geoffrey Macnab
The company was started by former Nomura banker Andy Whittaker and freelance script doctor Anna Godas in 2004. They
took the name Dogwoof in ironic reference to the film The Cat’s
Meow. They had less than £50,000 with which to launch the new
business.
At first, Dogwoof didn’t specialise in docs. The company’s mission was to pioneer digital distribution in the UK. One early
pick-up, Danish political thriller The King’s Game, was the first
film released on the Film Council’s new Digital Screen Network.
Another, psychological thriller EMR, became the first film in the
world to have a truly multi-platform release. The UK independent distribution marketplace was already crowded and fiercely
competitive. “In the first years, we were learning the business,”
Godas recalls.
In 2006, Head of Distribution Oli Harbottle joined the company. The following year, Dogwoof came across campaigning,
Fair Trade-themed coffee doc Black Gold, directed by Mark and
Nick Francis. The success of Black Gold prompted a re-think of
company strategy. “It was the first time we did a model with a
lot of in-kind partnerships attached and very strong filmmaker
support. We released the film and it did very well,” Godas states.
In an early example of “event” releasing, Dogwoof gave a ‘green’,
carbon-neutral premiere to Franny Armstrong’s Age of Stupid in
Leicester Square.
Soon, the company decided to release nothing but docs. “At
some point, I realised this is a niche that is growing, it makes
sense, we do it well, we enjoy it and it is very rewarding,” Godas
recalls.
Anna Godas & Andy Whittaker
Through ground-breaking deals with supermarkets the Co-Operative and Waitrose, who supported the marketing of Dogwoof ’s
socially conscious films, Dogwoof was able to give its docs expansive releases. The strategy was always to pursue a theatrical release
– something which distinguished the company from most other
UK doc buyers. “We always believed that a good film should be
in the theatre,” Whittaker recalls. “That was probably one of the
best decisions we made. We could attract some really high-calibre
documentary films because we were offering theatrical release.
Other people may have offered more money, but were just going
to shunt it to TV.” It helped, too, that Dogwoof was set up in a
period when UK broadcasters were turning their backs on documentary – and docs were emerging as a force in UK cinemas.
10 years on, after such releases as The End of the Line, Blackfish,
Burma VJ, Leviathan, Cutie and the Boxer, Vanishing of the Bees,
The Interrupters and many others, Dogwoof is now the pre-eminent doc distributor in the UK. When Dogwoof released The Act
of Killing, it ended up running for 52 weeks at the ICA. The goal
now is to maintain its position “at the top table.”
Stubborn Peter
Despite appearances to the contrary, Pieter van Huystee is a
stubborn man – although there are few doc producers as nice
to talk to, or as avuncular, or indeed as successful given the
100-plus productions he has under his belt. If being stubborn
is what has makes him so prolific, then he must be very stubborn indeed.
Van Huystee is at IDFA 2014 with three films, and talks
passionately about each. He also lays out his raison d’etre as a
producer. “It is always about the person. Can I work with him?
Can they inspire me? Can I inspire them? But I always say to
them, ‘it is your film, but my production.’”
Ramon Gieling’s Home, in Dutch Competition, came about
after a plea from the heart. The film is about homelessness,
dislocation and being a refugee in Europe, centering on the
highly charismatic Ivorian Cyriaque. “Ramon came to me and
said ‘Peter, I can’t make a film – they won’t fund me’, so I said,
‘The only thing we can do is to go ahead and make the film –
that job we know.’”
Daan Willekens’ Wolflady, screening in IDFA’s Music section,
chronicles the rise of ‘the new Amy Winehouse’, Sharon
Pieter van Huystee
Kovacs, and her intense relationship with music producer
Oscar Holleman. “They dive into each other,” comments Van
Huystee.
But Van Huystee reserves a special comment for Our City,
directed by Maria Tarantino and screening in Panorama. “It is
a project I support with all my heart,” he smiles. “Three years
ago, a girl came to me with a beautiful name and said, ‘You
made Amsterdam Global Village with Johan van der Keuken’
(which I consider to be the work I want to be most remembered for), and she said ‘I want to learn from you how you
achieved that level of filmmaking.’ Then she showed me a
10-minute thing and she really caught my eye – it was intuitive.”
“And she proves a point. You can go to whoever you want to
for financing but there must be something stubborn in you,
otherwise you can’t take care of yourself. Stubborn artists,
which sometimes makes them awful, but it is also why they
are great. They show us what we can’t do ourselves. And that is
how she is – stubborn. But she also has a poetry in her which I
think is wonderful.” Nick Cunningham

Canadian director Brett Gaylor gave a sneak preview of his
upcoming Do Not Track, exploring how our data is being
mined every time we log on, and not just by the NSA, as part
of DocLab event Who is Your Data? on Saturday. “Do Not
Track is a documentary series about tracking that tracks you,”
said Gaylor. “When you read the morning paper, dozens of
companies are observing you. The big question is what’s the
harm. My agenda is to incite curiosity.”
The interactive series, due for release in March 2015, will
incorporate tools like disconnect.me, showing users who is
watching them when they log on to a certain site, to enable
users to discover just how their data is being tracked.
The project, which was pitched at the Forum last year in the
cross-media section, is produced by Paris-based Upian with
the backing of the interactive departments of Canada’s NFB
and Franco-German broadcaster Arte. It is one five projects
involving the NFB’s interactive department being presented
at IDFA DocLab this year.
As well as Do Not Track, the Montreal branch, headed by
Hugues Sweeney, was also involved in competition titles
Primal, examining how we express feelings, and In Limbo,
looking at how our lives are captured by the data we create.
“On the Montreal side, we’ve always got four projects in the
concept stage, four in development stage and four in production stage,” Sweeney says.
The English-language Vancouver digital hub, headed by
Loc Dao, is also at DocLab with Seven Digital Deadly Sins,
its joint work with UK newspaper The Guardian exploring
internet sins linked to the original seven deadly sins.
Dao will fly out to London this week to pin down the details
of a second project with newspaper.
The platform will be at the heart of the DocLab Live event
Love & Other Deadly Sins on Monday, presented by Canadian comedian Ophira Eisenberg.
“We’ll focus on three of the original sins. So we’ll focus on
sloth, wrath and lust,” says Dao.
He, Sweeney and Vancouver-based producer Janine Steele
will also be at the Forum over the coming days scouting for
projects. Melanie Goodfellow
Cat’s eyes open
Among the extensive Cat
& Docs slate at IDFA
2014 are three films in
First Appearance: the
Indonesian Die Before
Blossom; Placebo from
India and Tea Time from
Chile. “In Die Before
Blossom, director Ariani
Djalal has made a film
about the school system
that is really killing kids
and their nature, the way
that Islamic values are
being taught to the kids,
Catherine le Clef
how they must arrive at
school at 6am to start to
pray instead of to study,” company Catherine le Clef explains.
Abhay Kumar’s Placebo is also about education, focusing
on students at medical school, “how it works in terms of
competition and pressure, and the suicides – that’s why we
wanted to represent that film.” Tea Time by Maite Alberdi is
an altogether lighter film, focusing on a group of old female
friends who take tea once a month, and talk about sex and
love and Chile.
“I think it is really important that these new directors have
a sales agent,” Le Clef comments. “It is so hard for them
to sell a film and to approach people and I think without
a company like us they may have a flyer on the wall but
nobody will talk to them. We know the buyers, we persuade
them to see the film and we discuss it, and I think it would
be so hard for the filmmakers to have to do that work.
When we choose a film the buyers know exactly the type of
film we like. They will watch it. They may reject it, but they
will watch it.”
Le Clef is also selling, among other docs, the main competition title Of Men and War, and The Storm Makers in the
mid-length competition, both of which Le Clef refers to as
“real eye-openers.” Nick Cunningham

Killer Slope
a
idf s
film
In April 2014, a group of Dutch climbers began
an expedition to climb Cho Oyu, one of the
highest mountains in the world. The team included
renowned investigative journalist and documentary
maker Geertjan Lassche, whose film about the
expedition, Killer Slope, has turned into one of the
phenomena of this year’s IDFA.
Ghosts from the Past
Cinta Forger and Walther Grotenhuis’ Ghosts from the Past is
an odyssey into the past of Dutch former criminal Viggo, who
goes in search of the innocent, sensitive boy he once was and
the causes of him becoming a “hard, nasty bastard.”
These causes lie principally in Viggo’s family background
which, as we gradually discover, is extremely unconventional
and troubled. “When I started making the film, I knew nothing about Viggo’s past,” director Grotenhuis says. “It was a
completely blank page. I just started interviewing him and it
spread from there.”
The story unfolds through these interviews with Viggo and
also with two of his sisters, along with footage of the three of
them trying to come to terms with their shared demons, and a
huge family archive of photographs, home movies and diaries.
“The family told me they knew there was this huge archive,”
Grotenhuis says. “But they didn’t know where it was. They
hadn’t seen it for decades. It turned out one sister had a lot of
it, and the other sister had a lot more. I told them not to open
it – it turned out to be this absolute treasure trove of material
they hadn’t seen for a long, long time.”
We accompany Viggo and his sisters in their exploration of this
family archive, as they gradually uncover and then relive dark
secrets behind the images of seemingly happy children at play,
holidays and family life. As the children get older, hints start
to emerge that all may not be as it seems – Viggo transforms
before our eyes from a carefree young boy playing with toys to
an angry young man posing with an Uzi.
Towards the end of the film, at the conclusion of this 90-minute
tour of his life we have been on, Viggo says to his psychotherapist, “I tried, but I haven’t got very far.” That innocent, sensitive
boy he once was is still an elusive image in a black-and-white
home movie. Viggo’s relationship with his sisters also remains
problematic. “I don’t think the film has actually helped their
relationships with one another that much,” Grotenhuis says.
“They still fight. They still live on their separate islands. But they
will all be at the premiere. Which is fantastic.” Mark Baker

Of Men and War
French director Laurent Bécue-Renard’s Of Men
and War revolves around a group of US veterans
undergoing therapy for post-traumatic stress disorder,
following tours of duty in the 2003 Iraq War.
The director spent a decade researching and making the film,
gaining unparalleled access to the therapy sessions at the
Pathway Home in California as well as the home lives of the
men taking part, his camera and crew eventually becoming an
integral part of the healing process.
“There is cinema because there is therapy in the film and there
is therapy because there is cinema,” says Bécue-Renard. “None
of the patients verbalise that, but it’s there.” One sign of this,
he says, is that the veterans would snap back into therapy
mode the minute camera started to roll months later for shots
of them with their families. “Interestingly in those scenes, the
presence of the camera creates a triangle with everyone – the
wives, children and vets – using it to say something to one
another,” the director says.
Of Men and War is part of a larger, long-term trilogy –
Genealogy of Wrath – looking at the impact of war on both
the fighters and future generations touched by the veterans’
subsequent, war-scarred behaviour. The trilogy is inspired by
Bécue-Renard’s personal fascination with his late grandfathers’ experiences in World War I and the impact altered
personas have on those around them. “The trauma of war is
passed on from generation to generation. We all carry it in
our lives,” he says.
The first film in the trilogy, War-Wearied, focused on Bosnian
war widows who lost their husbands on the Yugoslav War.
Bécue-Renard spent time in Sarajevo from 1995 to 1996,
editing the magazine Sarajevo Online. “After focusing on the
mythical figure of the war widow, I wanted to address the
issue of the warrior,” he says, adding that the third film in
the trilogy will focus on the impact of war on children. The
director will be taking part in an extended Q&A after the
screening on Monday, 24 November. Melanie Goodfellow
Lassche spent months preparing for the climb. He was determined not to be one of those filmmakers who stuck around
at base camp while the rest of the team headed toward
the peak. His film sets out to explore the mind-set of the
mountaineers. It was his intention to be there himself, 7,000
metres above sea level, and thereby to try to understand the
attraction of such an expedition. The other mountaineers
accepted him as an equal.
Mountaineering is an activity riven with contradictions. On
the one hand, the awe-inspiring feeling of being (literally) on
top of the world, and on the other, the squalor and hardship
involved in reaching the peak. “A horror movie pales in comparison,” one climber is shown commenting on TV before
the expedition begins. “The truth is not so romantic as you
think,” Lassche responds to the question of what drives the
mountaineers.
In the end, the trip didn’t go as hoped. There was controversy
about the unethical behaviour of expedition leader, Wilco.
The director was fascinated by the response to the doc – and
to the climber’s behaviour – from Danilo Tic (one of the bestknown mountaineers in the world and Lassche’s alpine trainer). “He said an expedition leader at that height can never be
your guide to the top. If you decide to go there and be above
6,000 metres, in a way you give up your life, you give up your
rights – don’t blame anybody if things go wrong.”
“As a human being and as a journalist at sea level, I don’t
agree,” the director says. “As a filmmaker who slowly became
a mountaineer, I know he is right… When you are there, at
that height, you don’t think about the others. You only think
about yourself.” Geoffrey Macnab
IDFA Competition for Dutch Documentary
Messi
He’s the little wizard with the immaculate left foot, the Argentine footballer often described as the best player in the world;
yet Lionel Messi remains an inscrutable figure.
Spanish director Alex de la Iglesia, the filmmaker behind such
darkly outrageous movies as Perdita Durango and Day of the
Beast, wasn’t a big football fan, but was intrigued when MediaPro proposed he made a doc about Messi. “It was a technical
challenge,” the director says of the central conceit of the film
– namely to have friends, teammates and journalists having
dinner, discussing the little genius. Shooting in restaurants
in Spain and Argentina, De la Iglesia was able to wrangle a
spectacular cast of Messi admirers, among them Dutch legend
Johan Cruijff, former Argentine manager and world cup
winner Cesar Luis Menotti, and Messi’s Barcelona colleagues
Javier Mascherano and Gerard Piqué. “We built a set in Buenos Aires and another one exactly the same in Barcelona.”
The doc gives the illusion that all the diners are in the same
place at the same time. “I was trying to make this beautiful
idea. Remember in Broadway Danny Rose, the Woody Allen
movie, when people are remembering someone in a diner,” De
la Iglesia explains. “The second point is that people are more
relaxed when they are eating. The camera was really far from
the table. There were maybe 100 extras...”
To his regret, De La Iglesia wasn’t able to interview Diego
Maradona (who had demanded a huge fee to appear and
therefore only features in archive material). As one interviewee
makes clear, Messi has moved the conversation on. “Thank
goodness for Messi, otherwise we’d still be talking about
Maradona!” For De la Iglesia, the ‘rosebud’ moment is when
he discovers Messi’s utter devotion to his grandmother (who
died in the late ’90s). She was his mentor when he was a little
boy, beginning to play football, and she is the one to whom he
beckons whenever he points his finger to the skies after scoring
yet another goal. Geoffrey Macnab

Democrats
Something
Better to Come
Danish filmmaker Camilla Nielsson
reveals she was somewhat underwhelmed by the premise of her latest
film Democrats, an up-close account
of the process surrounding Zimbabwe’s
drafting of a new constitution in 2013,
when she was first approached by
Copenhagen-based Upfront Films to
shoot the documentary.
“The film was not my idea. It came from a
Danish journalist living in Zimbabwe, Peter
Tygesen, who pitched it to the production
company where I made my last film Mumbai
Disconnected and that’s how the idea came
about. I thought it sounded like a boring idea
for a movie,” she recalls. “I thought, this is
going to be about clauses and law-making and
how explicit will the drama be for people who
don’t know law,” recalls Nielsson.
It was not until she met the two rival Zimbabwe politicians charged with laying the
groundwork for the new constitution – Paul
Mangwana of ruling Robert Mugabe’s ZANUPF and Douglas Mwonzora of the Movement
for Democratic Change opposition party –
that Nielsson decided to come on board.
“In these types of films, it’s all about the chemistry and trust and connection. Mangwana
Elephant’s
Dream
In Elephant’s Dream, Belgian director Kristof
Bilsen takes a wry look at the ‘revolution of
modernisation’ overtaking the Congo as seen
through the eyes of four engaging protagonists.
Post Office employee Henriette looks forward
to the imminent privatisation of her employer,
courtesy of Chinese Telecom. Shy railway
official Simon and his grumpy underling Nzai
bicker like characters from Beckett, while the
lieutenant in charge of the fire station sits in
the building’s roofless husk, itself gutted by fire
a few years previously.
“There are so many films talking about the
and I connected from the very start. We had
some common ground on colonial history and
the situation in Africa,” says the filmmaker.
“He perhaps met with a different point of view
than that of BBC journalists or other white
media. I think he felt I could tell a different
story about his country.”
Having been granted permission to shoot by
Zimbabwe’s Ministry of Constitutional Affairs,
Nielsson and her crew track Mangwana and
Mwonzora as they tour the country garnering
public opinion on what they want to see in the
new constitution. These meetings sometimes
turned bloody as the opposing factions clashed
and Nielsson says she and her cinematographer
sometimes feared for their safety.
“It’s a very laborious process to film in Zimbabwe. In the beginning we had to break down a
lot of walls. Foreign media has been banned in
Zimbabwe for many years so even the idea of
having a white film crew tailing two politicians, filming everything observationally, getting in and out of cars, in and out of buildings
was kind of a circus,” she adds.
Melanie Goodfellow
rapes in the Congolese Eastern Provinces, and
the horror and the heart of darkness, or you
have the other line about how the Congolese
poor make music and how they are creative,
but there is this much more ambiguous and
difficult thing to tackle, which is the colonial
legacy and why things are currently in the state
they are, and why things do not move in the
way we would wish them to.”
As if to underline the Beckettian theme, everybody in the film is waiting. Waiting to be paid
a salary, writing for the train to arrive, waiting
for a fire to be put out. When these things
eventually happen, the excitement is palpable, but not before the characters have clearly
voiced their dissatisfaction. “We are infected
by the law of apathy,” a union leader intones,
“which now results in our society being notorious for being needy and poor.”
Bilsen, who shot his film over three years,
seems more qualified than most to examine
the legacy of his country’s notorious colonial
past. “There is a confusion in our collective
memory, I guess, about that whole thing that
we suppressed and put under the carpet…
Even though painful I wanted to share that
story. People seeing the cost of the colonial
legacy and the bosses bossing people around,
and their acknowledgement of the tyranny of
dictatorship, a kind of mental dictatorship that
has been going for years. [They are] pinpointing that and daring to speak out about it to
say ‘this is absurd, how long it is going to last?’
That for me is hopeful.” Nick Cunningham
IDFA Competition for Feature-Length
Documentary
Pitched at the Forum in 2010
In Hannah Polak’s feature-length competition selection Something Better to Come, the
terrain protagonist Yula inhabits could be on
a remote planet in the outer Solar System. As
it happens, it is a vast rubbish dump on the
outskirts of Moscow, but no less cinematic
for that. Polak returned there again and again
over a period of 14 years to chart Yula’s development, and that of her family and friends,
in the process creating an intensely moving
tale of deprivation and gutsy survival.
The film is presented in a series of chapters,
beginning when Yula is ten. Beautiful, carefree and tomboyish, she rules the dump with
her gang of friends. But over the years, the
horrendous business of living in such squalor
inevitably takes its toll. We see Yula and her
comrades trade in objects for recycling, earning vodka for their pains. They smoke cigarettes made from newspaper. They eat herring
and McDonalds food culled from domestic
bin-liners. We see and hear evidence of sexual
abuse and how the dump’s community is
forced to survive freezing Moscow winters.
And then Yula becomes pregnant. The only
hope we have left, as an audience, is that the
film’s title is prophetic.
“For me, I took the camera and I was learning all the time while I was making this film,
and I absolutely matured as a filmmaker,”
states Polak. “But I didn’t only shoot the film.
I would come to deliver help to the people
of the garbage dump. I would take people to
the hospital. Sometimes I would take food,
medicines. I was trying to convince them that
somehow or other they could enter orphanages. I tried to be present in the dump or in
Yula’s life, not just to shoot my film.
“And did I have an influence? I think yes.
Yula told me how I would give them advice
and was teaching them and telling them not
to do things. ‘But the others didn’t take your
advice,’ she told me. ‘When I am offered the
chance I always take it and use it fully.’”

Documentary
My Friend the Enemy
When director Wanda Koscia refers to her
contender in IDFA’s mid-length competition My Friend the Enemy as a “feelgood
massacre movie”, she is only half joking.
The film follows a group of Poles as they return
to an area in what is now Western Ukraine
where for a long time Poles and Ukrainians
lived peacefully side by side. Until 1943 that
is, when – in the chaos following successive
invasions by Nazi Germany and the Soviet
Union – the Polish population was massacred
by Ukrainian nationalists.
“A few years ago, I was filming in Kiev and I got
interested in Polish-Ukrainian relations, which
is a very painful subject”, the director recalls.
She started researching the subject, and quickly
found that there were survivors of the massacre still living. “What particularly struck me”,
she says, “is even these survivors – who have
very bitter memories – as soon as I said I am
interested in the people who saved you, ninety
percent of them responded very positively. They
said, ‘Yes, we should remember them’.”
“These survivors feel their story hasn’t been
told,” Koscia says. “I really wanted to tell the
human story – and also the story of people who
tried to save Poles. It’s time to look at this painful history in a spirit of reconciliation. This film
is about the possibility of reconciliation. There’s
still a way to go, but there are people who are
trying, who are not just remembering the hate.”
“As I researched, I was also struck by a sense of
déjà-vu,” the director says. “It was just like the
ethnic cleansing that happened in the former
Yugoslavia, or Rwanda. I wanted to ask the
question, in a situation like that, how would
you behave? A little bit of self-examination is a
good thing.”
Initially, Koscia planned to film the visiting
Poles and the Ukrainians now living in the area
separately, but she soon realised the interaction between the two groups was the heart of
the film. “We thought, it’s got to be a meeting
between Poles and Ukrainians. I’ve got to show
that interrelation, which isn’t comfortable but
there is at least an effort being made. It was
important for me that they meet.” The resulting encounters are proof of how human being
can rise above the most horrific atrocities and
get along. Mark Baker
