Festen (1998)
IMPRESSIVE
Besides the quality of the artists, it's amazing how the story goes. Changing emotions from tears of indignity to surprising laughs, this is yet one of the classics of the Nordic movies. The way the story deals with the emotions is the high point of this film. The real truth not caring to tradition, rules, politics, ethics. One of the precursors of the DOGME, this movie is not to be forgotten.
Barbara (1997)
Extraordinary Scenery.
Filmed on The Faroes Islands, a story of a complicated woman who thinks it's possible to love everybody. She takes all men to madness. As you might notice, it's a poor story but the perfomance of the artists is good. The highlight of this movie is the scenery. The reconstruction of the atmosphere of the Faroes on the 18th century is great and anyways the landscape of these islands is absolutely amazing.
