European Minority Film Festival in Husum<b></b>In den Tagen vom 22. bis 24. November 2012 hat die Friisk Foriining
zum 4. Mal ein Film Festival organisiert, das Spielfilme in europäischen
Minderheitensprachen zeigte. Beteiligt waren die westfriesische
Produktion „Merke Blues“ (dtsch: Jahrmarkt-Blues), die baskische Komödie
„Urteberri on, Amona!“ (dtsch: Frohes neues Jahr, Großmutter!), der
mehrfach ausgezeichnete Spielfilm „Cigan“ (dtsch: Zigeuner) und die
südjütischen Romanverfilmung „Kunsten at græde i kor“ (dtsch: Die Kunst,
im Chor zu weinen).<br />
<br />
In ihrer Eröffnungsrede am Donnerstag würdigte die
Minderheitenbeauftragte des Ministerpräsidenten des Landes
Schleswig-Holstein, Renate Schnack, das Projekt der Friisk Foriining als
„europaweit einmalige Orchidee unter den Filmfestivals“.<br />
<br />
Eine international besetzte Jury hat auf der Abschlussgala im
Husumhus den von Arne Prohn gestalteten und mit 1000 Euro dotierten
EUROPEAN MINORITY FILM AWARD 2012 an Peter Schønau Fog vergeben.
Freudestrahlend nahm der dänische Regisseur zusammen mit dem
Hauptdarsteller des Films, Jannik Lorenzen, den schweren Preis für
„Kunsten at græde i kor“ entgegen (s. Foto). Dass der Film auch den
Publikumspreis erhielt, freute nicht nur die beiden Protagonisten,
sondern auch Enken Johannsen aus Niebüll, die bei der Verlosung unter
allen Teilnehmern einen Hotelgutschein gewann.<br />
<br />
Auf der Abschlussgala mit einem bunten Mix aus Filmausschnitten und
Livemusik erhieleten die Filmschaffenden aus den europäischen
Minderheitengebieten dann noch einmal Gelegenheit, für ihre Produktionen
zu werben. Sie waren verwundert darüber, dass es bisher noch keinen
Spielfilm in nordfriesscher Sprache gibt.<br />
<br />
Das Musikprogramm des Abends wurde in hervorragender Weise von Ginger
Redcliff (s. Foto), Gina Ohlmeier und Iaco Rigo & his Ethical
Project bestritten.<br />
<br />
Das EUROPEAN MINORITY FILM FESTIVAL 2012 ist das einzige Festival
dieser Art in Europa. Das Projekt wird unterstützt durch den
Beauftragten der Bundesregierung für Kultur und Medien über den
Friesenrat, durch das Kino Center Husum und durch Sydslesvigsk Forening.<br />

JURY LAUDATIO: Kunsten at græde i kor</h2>
<img src="http://www.minority-film.net/index/img/posters/kor_large.jpg" />
<br />
<h3>
Moin og gojawten</h3>
A tøs det er grov glant te a få low te å sai lit om æ synnejysk
film. Den sku jo ha het 'Æ kunst å græe i kor', men så lant række æ
tolenrance i Danmark vist it. Det er den føest film å synnejysk, troe a
nok.<br />
<br />
Å Unescos jemmsie om truet sproch stå dæ, te synnejysk æ akut
truet å dø ue. Det sku it gærn ske. Dæfå hofer a å manne fleje film å æ
sproch.<br />
<br />
'Kunsten at græde i kor' is a marvellous movie:<br />
The social environment of a village in South Jutland /North
Schleswig in the 1970s is described very precisely. I know that, because
I grew up there in a neighboring village myself at that time. The music
- reaching from Janice Joplin to Schubert - supports the atmosphere and
mood of the film. Apart from that I want to give my personal
compliments to the Danish composer of the original music.<br />
<br />
The actors play very well, especially of course the boy Allan played by Jannik Lorenzen.<br />
The story line progresses in a calm an unexcited way.<br />
<br />
The very special thing about this movie is that it deals with an
issue that was taboo for many years. When you hear that it is a movie
about child abuse in the family, you expect to see and be witness to
terrible things. But this is, surprisingly, not the case. The artistic
genius is the ambiguity of the movie: We see the family though the eyes
of the boy. But his naïve and innocent interpretations contrast with our
knowledge about child abuse. The dilemma of the boy is - on the one
hand - to keep his innocence and the love to his father and - on the
other hand – realize what is really going on in the family and realize
the hurt being done to his sister. At the end he has to make it clear
where he stands. He ends up with the pragmatic South Jutish idiom that
'Det er it nowe så gal det it æ got for nowe'.<br />
(Unfortunately not translated correctly in the English version).<br />
<br />
It is a touching movie and a very brave one, too.<br />
Although the quality of the contributions to the minority film
festival was extraordinarily high this year, the jury found it easy to
reach its decision. We are delighted to award the European Minority Film
Award 2012 to 'Kunsten at græde i kor'.<br />

He has taken a tragic film about depression and molestation and infused freshness and humor.</p><p><em>The Art of Crying</em> is based on Erling Jepsen's novel about a rural South Jutland family in 1971. Their home life could not be worse, but youngest son Allan does not comprehend what surrounds him. However, when older brother Asger comes home from college, he is resentful of Asger's escape.</p><p>The family falls into an exhausting routine. To sum up the good days, Allan states, "When dad is happy, he forgets to kill himself." The bad days are something else. Father Henry argues with his wife regarding what a lousy person he is while threatening to end his life, and when she tires of this game Allan tries to cheer him up. As a last but all too common resort, Allan sends his 14-year-old sister downstairs to comfort their father, completely unaware of what that entails.</p><p>The story is narrated by Allan though his viewpoint is blurred. With the constant attention his dad requires to contain his depression, Allan guards him like a bulldog. He is young enough to<br />still be naïve, but on the brink of realizing all is not well. Jannik Lorenzen makes his film premiere in the role, and captures the character with a fierce rawness, shedding any possibility for pity. </p><p>Allan wishes harm on anybody who belittles his father, and surprisingly, this is where the humor is inserted. He discovers that his father gains confidence while delivering a eulogy and causing everyone else to cry for a change. Therefore, Allan surmises, his father's happiness must come from the death of others.</p><p>As he wishes his dad's grocery competitor ill and slides too many pills towards his ailing aunt, there is humor in his efforts. Sadly, he does not realize the irony of killing for a man who always<br />threatens to kill himself. But Allan has only ever known one purpose in life, and that is to ensure that his father lives to see the next day.</p><p>Allan's sister Sanne is portrayed by another first-time film actor, and Julie Kolbech superbly captures the young girl at the state when reason is edging its way into habit. Struggling to break free and enjoy life, every new experience is shattered by her jealous father. Each sibling is in a different stage of comprehension and thus coping while their mother watches in resignation. Jesper Asholt portrays Henry as an exposed nerve. He is not evil – he thinks his actions are<br />performed out of love, but they are the wrong actions and he clearly needs help. </p><p>Fog raises concern for a dreadful situation while allowing the film to be quite watchable. As protective as Allan is of his father, the viewer becomes protective of the little boy, hoping that he will realize some habits are meant to be broken. </p></div></div></div>Unknownnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32882991.post-51125663552893168052008-02-05T20:29:00.000+01:002008-02-06T17:45:50.019+01:00Eight Awards from the Danish Film Academy!<div align="center"><a href="http://bp1.blogger.com/_lnOluOs7fb8/R6i8mrflG7I/AAAAAAAAARg/orbFGlrCYZQ/s1600-h/Robert_Kristian_Saederup.jpg"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5163584345476504498" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; CURSOR: hand; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://bp1.blogger.com/_lnOluOs7fb8/R6i8mrflG7I/AAAAAAAAARg/orbFGlrCYZQ/s320/Robert_Kristian_Saederup.jpg" border="0" /></a><em>Foto: Kristian Sæderup</em> </div><br /><p><br /><span style="font-size:130%;"><strong>All smiles for runaway best film<br /></strong></span><em>By </em><a href="http://jp.dk/uknews/culture/article1254254.ece"><em>The Copenhagen Post</em></a><em><br />Published 04.02.08 00:00</em><br /><br />'The Art of Crying' capped a year of critical international and domestic acclaim by being named the best Danish movie of 2007<br /><br />Winning a total of eight awards, including Best Film, Best New Director and the Audience Award, the riveting family drama 'The Art of Crying' was the evening's big winner on Sunday, when the Danish Film Academy handed out its 2007 Robert Awards.<br /><br />'The Art of Crying' tells the story of precocious, eleven-year-old Allan, trying to keep his dysfunctional, rural family together during the social upheavals of the early 1970s.<br /><br />In addition to being one of the country's biggest box office hits in 2007, 'The Art of Crying', and its director, Peter Schønau Fog, had harvested no less than 13 awards at film international festivals prior to Sunday's accolades.<br /><br />It was also nominated as Denmark's entry in the Best Foreign Film category in this year's Academy Awards.<br /><br />Also winning multiple awards on Sunday was the children's film 'Island of the Lost Souls'. </p><br /><p>'Eastern Promises', starring Denmark's own Viggo Mortensen, received the Film Academy's nod as the Best Non-American Foreign Film.

Men de mange priser koster.Kunsten at græde i kor« rører og berører. På den ene eller anden måde. Filmens far, vestjyden Peter Schønau Fog, har med sin egen baggrund fra Fanø omsat den sønderjyske forfatters Erling Jepsens ord om seksuelt og andet misbrug i sin egen barndom og familie til en film af internationale dimensioner. Mange priser og nomineringer, blandt de sidste til en Oscar-statuette, er fulgt succesen på lærredet. Efter en forevisning i USA oplevede instruktøren to helt modsatte reaktioner at se og opleve filmen på: Den totale identifikation og fortielsen...

The story of a dysfunctional family with a tyrannical, child-abusing father ambles along like a gentle pastoral tale. The clash of style and subject matter ultimately proves quite startling, as does the movie's capacity for meting out forgiveness. But its relentlessly despairing tone will make it a hard sell overseas. The Danish film screened at the EFP New York Industry Screenings.</div><br /><div></div><br /><div>"The Art of Crying," directed by Peter Schonau Fog from a novel by Erling Jepsen, is told from the point of view of 11-year-old Allan (Jannik Lorenzen). Allan is in the thrall of his unsavory father, Papa (Jesper Asholt), who suffers from an inferiority complex and bullies his two children. Papa uses Allan to keep tabs on daughter Sanne (Julie Kolbeck), especially when she's dating. Suspicions about Papa's overzealous investigations into Sanne's romances are confirmed when he's revealed as an incestuous child molester.</div><br /><div></div><br /><div>The script, by Bo Hr Hansen, cleverly expresses the nonjudgmental view of a child who doesn't know any better. Allan doesn't realize that there's anything wrong with his family and is quite proud of his father until it dawns on him that Papa's relationship with Sanne is not quite right. The mother, played by Hanne Hedelund, is a study in cowardice, allowing the abuse to continue. The film also examines how rural isolation can build close-knit communities oblivious to general standards of right and wrong.</div><br /><div></div><br /><div>Performances are all above par, with Asholt managing to immerse himself in the role of a child abuser. </div>Unknownnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32882991.post-75573166163055507532007-11-30T22:08:00.000+01:002007-11-30T23:46:20.484+01:00The Art of Crying qualified for “The 65th Annual Golden Globe Awards”<a href="http://bp1.blogger.com/_lnOluOs7fb8/R1CSqhoR7oI/AAAAAAAAAQw/q-ymg_qPKec/s1600-R/index_hfpalogo.gif"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5138768434109214338" style="FLOAT: right; MARGIN: 0px 0px 10px 10px; CURSOR: hand" alt="" src="http://bp1.blogger.com/_lnOluOs7fb8/R1CSqhoR7oI/AAAAAAAAAQw/QafifyU-ZGE/s320/index_hfpalogo.gif" border="0" /></a><br /><div>61 FOREIGN LANGUAGE FILMS ELIGIBLE FOR “THE 65th ANNUAL GOLDEN GLOBE AWARDS” TO BE TELECAST LIVE ON NBC AT 8 PM ON SUNDAY, JANUARY 13, 2008<br /><br />HOLLYWOOD, CA, November 29, 2007 – 61 foreign language films have been qualified for “The 65th Annual Golden Globe Awards” consideration honoring 2007 achievements, it was announced today by Jorge Camara, President of the Hollywood Foreign Press Association.<br /><br />The Art of Crying aka Kunsten at græde i kor is among the 61 qualified films.

Jesper Asholt, Hanne Hedelund, Jannik Lorenzen og Julie Kolbeck<br />Anmeldt av<br /><a href="http://www.gd.no/kultur/film/article3115759.ece">Per Ivar Henriksbø </a><br />Publisert 09.11.2007 - 12:44</span></em><br /><br />Jøss, for en film! Det forundrer meg ikke det minste at «Kunsten å gråte i kor» fikk Nordisk Råds filmpris for 2007. Hvis vår hjemlige kandidat til Oscar-nominasjonen «Tatt av kvinnen» greier å danke ut danskenes bidrag, må det være noe riv ruskende galt med juryen. Ikke til forkleinelse for dramatiseringen av Erlend Loes lett traumatiske møte med det motsatte kjønn. Men når våre brødre og søstre i sør knuser til med film av sånt format, er det bare å bøye seg i ærbødighet, respekt og ydmykhet, og erkjenne at så gode er vi ennå ikke blitt her til lands at vi er i stand til å matche genistreker som «Kunsten å gråte i kor».<br /><div><br /><div>Denne filmen har det meste en fortelling skal ha. Humor, dramatikk, melankoli, spenninger, vendepunkt, troverdighet, storartede bilder og fenomenalt skuespill av barn som voksne. Jeg har knapt sett bedre av det siste i skandinavisk film laget i den sosialrealistiske hverdagssjangeren. Store ord skal man være forsiktig med. Men her ser jeg ikke mange grunner for å spare på akkurat dem. </div><br /><div>Den ytre fortellingen opprører, den indre rører ved oss. Jeg lo og ble oppriktig grepet om en annen. Kanskje mest av alt fordi fortellingen er så troverdig, og skildringene så eksepsjonelt gode. </div><br /><div>Når historien fortelles med slik innsikt i filmmediets muligheter og fortrinn, er det bare å gi seg ende over. Det er stort å være på kino når lerretet får format av dette kaliberet. </div><br /><div>Handlingen er lagt til tidlig på 1970-tallet. Vi befinner oss på bygda i en familie der faren er en sykelig selvmedlidende patriark av en småkjøpmann og et naturtalent i å holde spontane begravelsestaler for kreti og pleti. Kona har dels resignert, og tar sovepiller i stedet for å høre på en mann som synes gruelig synd på seg selv og foretar seg ting man ikke skal. Eldstesønnen har flyttet for å få seg utdannelse og stifte bo. Tenåringsdatteren er barnet som må trøste faren på alle mulige måter når han er lei seg og truer med å ta livet sitt. Minstemann, elleve år gamle Allan, er pappas øyesten som imidlertid må tåle en ørefik i ny og ne. Han er på mange måter limet i familien. </div><br /><div>«Kunsten å gråte i kor» er en fortelling om incest og overgrep, om livsløgner og privatlivets fred, om oppvekst og generasjonskløfter. Her er det barna som tar de voksnes ansvar, mens de voksne (ikke nødvendigvis av ondskap) indirekte legger egne plikter på ungene. Først og fremst er det en historie om forfall. </div><br /><div>Dette er filmen du bare MÅ se! </div></div>Unknownnoreply@blogger.com
