He has it: Roy Andersson with the Golden Lion at the Venice Film Festival 2014
“If I were the jury,” stood in Venice Blog this newspaper, “I would toss a coin with three sides to decide – namely between the Russian postman [" The Postman's White Nights "by Andrey Koncalovskij], the glorious Loriot-meets-Kafka-meets-Jeff Wall absurdities of Roy Andersson and the real estate drama” 99 Homes “Ramin Bahrani of.”
You can not always completely’re right: Bahrani has won neither of the two main prizes, but the Swedish director Roy Andersson won the Golden Lion at this year’s 71 Film Festival in Venice. His film “A Pigeon Sat on a Branch Reflecting on Existence” originated with German support.

And the Silver Lion went to the Russian director Andrei Koncalovskij for “The Postman’s White Nights”: a knitted all the way to the production methods of today’s reality TV shows (amateur actors, hidden cameras) miracle that suddenly lifts that reality imaging technologies on art level:
The postman Aleskeij Tryapitsyn provides its service to a desolate lake in north of Russia, travels back in the boat and forth, brings to people their pension, white maxims such as “bread can not be sent via e-mail you!” And says the woman that he likes, so nice things like: “Earlier in the school you have roared like a horse” when he pulled her on a plait. Probably that’s true even probably true in this film at all most of it.
soulmates artist
Together the two Grand Prize winners is an unconditional style will and obeying his ability to compose images that exploits no retelling. Leads that this style will but both are not too large oil paintings, not to monomania of “genres Chef d’oeuvre” (Adorno), located at the pleasure of both masters, something to talk about, and his love for her characters.
With so much kinship was inevitable that the films with each other in secret dialogue: the village drunkard in Russians is like from a picture by Andersson stumbled, and in the great Sweden is again talk of a never nominate made sly Russians , a real fox, whose maneuvers you could not guess – who else should there be meant, if not the colleague from the lake
?
Honors for aesthetic determination
An aesthetically sound, a happy, a just double decision so – and who wants to find apolitical, must overlook the fact that the Grand Prize of the Jury for Joshua Oppenheimer’s “The Look of Silence “Film explicitly recognizes the medium as a political instrument for illuminating darkened contemporary historical blood angle. The work is a documentation – as opposed to “Siva”, the Turkish dogs history of the Berlin director Kaan Müjdeci, who made this film because he had already turned on the same subject a documentary and there you have missed, the only could afford fiction.
Twice honors for aesthetic determination and great alternative worlds, two more for people who stay close to the reality – not only justice is that, but also developed on all sides. So the next year may go willingly.
