German filmmaker Mascha Schilinski's "The Voice of Fall" debuted Wednesday afternoon at the Cannes Film Festival, the first film in the competition to premiere to Grand Lumière. If there is any sign of the revelry review, the festival seems to have a major Palme d'Or contender in hand. The TV series is a follow-up to Schilinski's 2017 debut at the "Dark Blue Girl".
While the "Stumbling Voice" meets applause (one-half-third) on the short side of the festival, the reaction behind the screen is more or less overturned by the theater for the next show: Tom Cruise's "Task: Impossible-Impossible-The Final Estimation". Schilinski brought her microphone to thank her cast, which also calmed the audience down. The crowd continued to cheer on it as they left the theater to make way for the Mission premiere.
variety Guy Lodge calls the film an epic epic epic epic "enter the big league" with "amazing calm and ambitious second". "We may have seen the best movies at the Cannes Film Festival," wrote for the Condor. The Hollywood Reporter, The Guardian and others were sensational. This movie is looking for our release.
Schilinski's film focuses on four girls - Alma, Erika, Angelika and Lenka, who all spent their youth on the same farm in northern Germany. "As the house grows, the walls of the past reverberate on the walls," the summary of the film explains. "Although they separate over time, their lives begin to reflect each other."
In an interview type "The most important thing about this movie is to remember. About our memories and how we perceive. At first, you are trapped in the present and in the body, but as time goes by, you can look at yourself from the outside when you look back."
When she wrote the script on the farm with co-author Louise Peter, Shilinsky said she was shocked by "time at the same time." "We had spirits and ghosts inside, and ghosts from this old farm. When you entered the room, you didn't know what was going on there, but you still felt... the place had been abandoned for 50 years, but everything still existed, including a spoon, a farmer put it down for the last time."
Therefore, “The Sound of Falling” explores how memory affects our destiny. "They burn under the skin," Schilinski said. "What can we really access when we talk about memory? Which part of our past? Because of the way memory works, sometimes it's not the biggest trauma or the biggest event that makes us the best feeding us."
