AGNES 👵✨🚲
ΜΙΑ ΙΣΤΟΡΙΑ ΓΙΑ ΤΗΝ ΕΛΕΥΘΕΡΙΑ ΠΟΥ ΔΕΝ ΓΝΩΡΙΖΕΙ ΗΛΙΚΙΑ. A STORY ABOUT FREEDOM THAT KNOWS NO AGE.
Στο Διεθνές Διαγωνιστικό Τμήμα Μυθοπλασίας, φιλοξενούμε το "AGNES" της Leah Vlemmiks. Η 74χρονη Agnes βρίσκεται αντιμέτωπη με την προσδοκία της κόρης της να γίνει η μόνιμη «νταντά» της οικογένειας. Όμως, αντί να υποχωρήσει, η Agnes επιλέγει να ανακαλύψει τον εαυτό της από την αρχή.
Η ταινία συγκεντρώνει ένα εντυπωσιακό cast και μια ομάδα παραγωγής που εγγυώνται κορυφαία κινηματογραφική εμπειρία. Πρωταγωνιστεί η θρυλική Eileen Davies (Vera Drake, Sightseers) πλαισιωμένη από την Clare Holman (The Crown), ενώ στην εκτέλεση παραγωγής συναντάμε τον Ryan Bobkin, παραγωγό της cult επιτυχίας Infinity Pool (dir. Brandon Cronenberg). Με τη διεύθυνση φωτογραφίας της Naomi Amarger, το "AGNES" είναι μια αισθητικά άρτια και βαθιά ανθρώπινη ματιά στη γυναικεία αυτοδιάθεση.
In this year’s International Fiction Competition, we present "AGNES" by Leah Vlemmiks. 74-year-old Agnes is pressured to become a live-in babysitter, but she finds her own sense of agency in the most unexpected place. This "second coming of age" story challenges the societal invisibility of older women with wit and soul.
Boasting a stellar creative team, the film stars the iconic Eileen Davies (Vera Drake) and Clare Holman (The Crown). Behind the scenes, Executive Producer Ryan Bobkin (Infinity Pool) and Director of Photography Naomi Amarger bring a high-caliber cinematic vision to this intimate portrait. "AGNES" is a life-affirming reminder that purpose and desire can be rediscovered long after the world thinks you’ve settled.
