Vor der geschlossenen Tür eines Gerichtssaals warten zwei Mädchen. Luce, noch klein, verspielt und eigensinnig. Domenica, fast erwachsen, unsicher und abweisend. Während ihre Väter sich drinnen in einem komplizierten Prozess um Mord oder Totschlag gegenüberstehen, wissen die Töchter draußen nicht, was tun. Ganz auf diesen einen Ort konzentriert, rückt die Regisseurin vermeintliche Randfiguren ins Zentrum, die ungewohnte, immer neue Perspektiven auf das Drama eröffnen. Nebenschauplätze wie Flure, Treppenhäuser und Pfützen werden zu Orten mit Möglichkeiten. Mütter und Stiefmütter kommen und gehen. Belegte Brote, Nudeln mit Tomatensoße und ein kleiner Spatz erzählen eigene Geschichten. Unter den Bänken klebt stiller Protest.

Two girls wait in front of a closed courtroom door. There’s playful, headstrong Luce, who’s still little and insecure, and there’s dismissive Domenica, who’s almost grown-up. Inside, their fathers are seated on opposite sides of the courtroom. The trial is complicated – was it manslaughter or murder? Out in the hallway, the daughters are unsure about what to do. Focussing all of her attention on this one spot, the director places supposed peripheral players centre stage, opening up a series of new and unusual perspectives. Secondary spaces and elements, such as corridors, stairwells and puddles – are explored for their potential. Moms and step-moms come and go. Sandwiches, pasta Napoli and a little sparrow tell their own stories, while a gesture of silent protest hangs stuck to the underside of a bench.

Between uproars and spa days

Hong Kong, July 28, 2019. Screaming, tear gas, gunfire. One, two, retreat from the front line, push forward. We are in the midst of Hong Kong's protests and uprisings last summer. We march with the masses, hiding behind the shields, seeing our comrades shouting commands, keeping moving, fainting, being carried away. Everything is chaotic and frightening, but still organized and controlled. For 15 minutes I hold my breath, my heart is racing and at the same time keeps skipping beats. It is suffocating. Incredibly suffocating to experience a day of the Hong Kong riots so close. In my holiday-influenced July, I did hear and read about the situation, but unfortunately I didn't learn about it too much. Therefore, it feels even more extreme to be thrown into this moment at the beginning of the 14+ Short Film Roll 2. Despite the brevity of the film, one arrives immediately within the scene. The camera fits seamlessly into the group dynamics. Everyone around is too busy to shy away ...

The wind phone as an emotional escape

After Yuki & Nina in the 2009 Kplus programme, Nobuhiro Suwa returns to the Generation programme with another film. His new film Kaze No Denwa is in the 14+ programme. The day after the world premiere he takes a whole hour for Clara and me to answer our questions about the shooting process, the situation in Japan and other things. We make ourselves comfortable in the lounge of the Hotel Berlin, Berlin and exchange thoughts about Kaze No Denwa, Japan and the world with nice background music, while Isabelle kindly translates for us. Free Generation Reporters : How did the film team come together and how did you find Serena Motola, Haru's actress? Nobuhiro Suwa : It has been 18 years since I shot my last film in Japan. Since 2002, I have actually only worked with French producers. So I didn't know most of my new colleagues before. It was all very exciting and I was quite nervous, but everything went well. We did a casting for Haru, several girls showed up, but in the end ...
