Children, adolescents and ice (Official Section)

Sail ofiziala Donostiako Zinemaldia
Lack of imagination? In the three words above you can compress the protagonists of most of the films that have passed through Sunday (21) in the Official Section of the San Sebastian Festival, dominated by children in Asbe du-pa and The boy in the Striped Pyjamas. The first, by Samira Makhmalbaf, is close to hitting the target, but he would only get the footage if he were to sprout. Well done, suggestive; but better with some sacrifices. The boy in striped pajamas is another matter: So far it has been the most anodic product they have given in the Official Section. I'm glad you're out of the competition. In Genoa, Michael Winterbottom has shown a skilled hand in using the Italian city for the benefit of his narrative. He has come up with a very convincing result with the story of his father trying to keep his teenage daughters at bay. Finally ice, in Den du frygter and Frozen River (first located in Denmark, the second on the border between Canada and the United States).Frozen river seems to me to be made slower: I think Courtney Hunt will be the director who will give something to talk about.
