Calls: After Jules (Chapter 12), Renate Reinsve delivers even more exciting performance

School case

When the incident in the school occurs, the parents of young Armand and Johnny are managing management. But everyone has difficulty explaining what really happened. Child accounts are contrary to, beliefs clash until adult persuasions fall apart …

With a gifted gold camera at the last Cannes Film Festival, Summons are the first feature film by Norwegian filmmaker Halfdan Ullmann Tøndel. Serves with its magnetic aesthetics, as well as its tension, almost obvious, this attractive closed dock is also obliged to many of its characters. Overview from students’ parents, school staff, a review of various characters until March 12 was discovered in the cinema.

Actors Duel at the top

If the call is the director’s first film Halfdan Ullmann TøndelThe feature film acts as a real confirmation of actress Renat Rinswee. He returned to the Cannes Festival, almost three years after Julie’s triumph (chapter 12), who received a prestigious woman interpretation award. Again, the actress delivers absolutely vertical performance between calling, manipulations and weaknesses.

Indeed, Renat depicts Reinsve, Elizabeth, the mother of Little Armand. When the latter is charged with one of the friends for attack, Elizabeth is called a group of teachers and then confronted the parents of the alleged victim. It then starts to play claims, as all protagonists of the case seem to be interconnected by each other by their past events. Can Elizabeth be innocent of her son?

Along with Elizabeth, Sarah acts as an opposition figure. Johnny’s mother, a young boy, is likely to break Armand, he especially gets his son’s protection. But is this battle really its priority? Indeed, the old quarrel contradicts Elizabeth, to the extent that children’s conflict gradually occurs in adults …

Actress Ellen Dorit Petersen had to have Halfdan Ullmann Tøndel ordered Sarah, the character at first glance antipathic, but in fact infinitely more difficult. The choice that was obvious to the filmmaker.

“” “Helen is one of the best Norwegian actors and her talent is undoubtedHe explains. We met many actors for this role and for very different styles. But during the actor I felt that he was very open, curious, courageous, and that his alchemy was very interesting with Renat. It really was what I decided.

If the actor was already distinguished in the category of the Cannes Film Festival “in a certain sense” category, for his innocence, this new role against Renat Rinsway does not create its performance, in all secrets and fragments than more attractive.

But the fight is not limited to mothers who are not between their problematic past and the desire to protect their child. Indeed, school staff do their best to bring them accompanied by their exchange. Anyway, this is what viewers could believe …

The satirical and pessimistic view of the school system

During the discussion between the parents, the team of teachers is mediated between the two parties. They include a young teacher Sunna (Thea lambrechts Vaulen), but also director Jarle (Øystein røger). Very quickly, their obvious insurance disappears to identify the shortcomings of their operation.

First, Sunna. Johnny and Armand’s teacher seems to want to do the best, despite the lack of experience and pressure that weighs his shoulders. However, Sunna did not directly witness the incident. Can Elizabeth trust her, Sarah and Anders?

Those who put pressure on Sunnah are Jareli, a school principal where Johnny and Armend are educated. An experienced teacher, he is especially ready to do something to maintain the reputation of his establishment, even if it means manipulating the case. However, his more repetitive health problems seem to be difficult, or at least failed to judge him …

The symbols of the default and busy school system, these characters, sometimes inexperienced teaching figures, sometimes aging, are struggling to play their role as the role of intermediaries and, worse, simply to make the truth.

Inability to get symptomatic initiatives from Norway, according to Ulman Tendel from filmmaker crescent: “In my opinion, given the importance of state management (which is a good thing), it is undoubtedly more difficult for us to take individual initiatives and take responsibility for events that may occur, especially within the institutions governed by public power.

To the satire of this reality if we do not have a document that describes the exact situation and the guide before it, so no one knows what to doHe regrets. Suddenly, a small incident found in schools, hospitals, social assistance offices, etc., which is normal, can prove a huge problem with these institutions – and we are somewhat dependent on people who dare to make decisions on an individual scale.»

The magnetic drama, which is decorated with the satire of biting the education system, should be invited to the theaters on March 12.
