We\u2019re inside a primary school in Norway. Elisabeth, the mother of a student, has been summoned to the school to <a href=\"https:\/\/buradabiliyorum.com\/en\/category\/download-scripts-themes-apps\/\" data-internallinksmanager029f6b8e52c=\"9\" title=\"Download Scripts &amp; Themes &amp; Apps\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">app<\/a>ear before a panel of teachers. She\u2019s informed, in dribs and drabs, that her six-year-old son, Armand (we never see him \u2014 or any other child, which is odd, since the whole film is about children), may have sexually abused one of his classmates. Since Elisabeth believes that she has a well-adjusted son, and that a six-year-old can\u2019t be guilty of abuse in any predatory way, she fixes her interrogators with a look of skeptical contempt. And after they\u2019ve grilled her about a <a href=\"https:\/\/buradabiliyorum.com\/en\/category\/watch-movies-tv-seriess\/\" data-internallinksmanager029f6b8e52c=\"8\" title=\"Watch Movies &amp; TV Series\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">series<\/a> of what strike her as trivial micro transgressions, she starts to laugh. In fact, she can\u2019t stop laughing.<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/ lrv-u-margin-lr-auto  lrv-a-font-body-m   \">\n    Elisabeth is played by Renate Reinsve, who reached a new peak of prominence with her performance in Joachim Trier\u2019s \u201cThe Worst Person in the World.\u201d The laughing jag she subjects us to \u2014 it lasts about four minutes \u2014 is a bravura piece of acting. She keeps laughing, and stopping, and laughing again, as if it were busting out of her and she couldn\u2019t control it. Watching this, I began to think that laughing, for an actor, must be even harder than crying. How can you make it look spontaneous? For minutes at a time?<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/ lrv-u-margin-lr-auto  lrv-a-font-body-m   \">\n    But the power of Reinsve\u2019s performance is about where the laughter comes from. It\u2019s bitter and almost sarcastic laughter, with an undercurrent of <em>are-you-shitting-me?<\/em> disbelief. She\u2019s not just laughing at the idiocy of the questions she\u2019s been asked. She\u2019s laughing at the very idea that she lives in a society that has decided to subject behavior to this degree of control. That\u2019s why her laughter won\u2019t stop. The revelation \u2014 the utter horror \u00ad\u2014 that\u2019s driving her giggle fit keeps hitting her, at deeper and deeper levels. Reinsve, unlike the film\u2019s director, has no famous filmmaking legacy, but what she does in this scene made me think of the great Liv Ullmann.<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/ lrv-u-margin-lr-auto  lrv-a-font-body-m   \">\n    The rest of the film made me think that coherence \u2014 of story, theme, vision \u2014 may be a fading value. <br \/>\u201cArmand\u201d has an interesting premise (a parent being grilled about her son\u2019s behavior as a vehicle for an exploration of <a href=\"https:\/\/buradabiliyorum.com\/en\/category\/social-mediaa\/\" data-internallinksmanager029f6b8e52c=\"1\" title=\"Social Media\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">social<\/a> values). But the movie, while elegantly photographed, is mostly a shambles. It keeps throwing things at you in an oblique and random way, and it\u2019s constructed like a puzzle with no solution. Ingmar Bergman became the 20th-century icon of egghead cinema, yet Bergman, for all the loftiness of his reach, wrote dialogue that could suck the audience in like a whirlpool. Halfdan Ullmann T\u00f8ndel, on the other hand, comes up with \u201cconversation\u201d so terse and elliptical that it sounds like the staccato coding of late-period David Mamet as written by someone who was multitasking.<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/ lrv-u-margin-lr-auto  lrv-a-font-body-m   \">\n    Ullmann T\u00f8ndel doesn\u2019t know how to follow a scene through. Time and again, he leaves us hanging, and most of what happens is flagrantly unbelievable. Why does the panel questioning Elisabeth do it in a classroom rather than an office? Given the seriousness of what may have happened, why don\u2019t they simply tell her what the accusation is instead of dithering around it for 45 minutes? The person overseeing the panel is an inexperienced young teacher, Sunna (Thaa Lambrechts Vaulen), who\u2019s in way over her head. But if one of the film\u2019s essential points is that Norwegian culture has become fanatical in its caution, then why would <em>she <\/em>be put in charge? As details of the incident come to light, it emerges that Armand\u2019s accuser, a six-year-old named Jon, claims that he was raped. But as Elisabeth points out, this seems like highly unlikely behavior \u2014 or language \u2014 for a six-year-old.<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/ lrv-u-margin-lr-auto  lrv-a-font-body-m   \">\n    As if the situation weren\u2019t loaded enough, Ullmann T\u00f8ndel piles on connections and layers of trauma among the characters. Elisabeth and Sarah, the mother of Jon, are sisters-in-law. (Yet we somehow aren\u2019t told this for a long time.) Thomas, the man connecting them, was Sarah\u2019s brother and Elisabeth\u2019s husband; he committed suicide. (Sarah blames Elisabeth.) The fact that there is so much talk about people we never meet is frustrating. And the way that old photographs of several of the teachers, taken back when they were students at the school, are displayed in the hallway lends moments of the movie a spooky but weirdly gratuitous \u201cGirl with the Dragon Tattoo\u201d vibe. Even a recurring bloody nose is made to seem sinister. Late in the film, there are a couple of showpiece sequences that leave dialogue aside: a sinewy dance performed by Elisabeth, and an expressionistic group body grope. Why are these scenes there? Beats me.<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/ lrv-u-margin-lr-auto  lrv-a-font-body-m   \">\n    Ullmann T\u00f8ndel films the school with a sinister gloss that turns the hallways into a maze, and we hang in there, hoping we can figure out what\u2019s going on. I could gas on about \u201cArmand\u2019s\u201d pesky contrivances, but instead I\u2019ll simply ask a question that critics probably don\u2019t ask often enough: Who is this movie for? Who is going to see it? Who, outside of a film festival, is going to be eager to cut through its thicket of incoherence? Halfdan Ullmann T\u00f8ndel has some talent (he staged that laughing-jag scene), but if Ingmar Bergman were staring down from art-house heaven, I think he would say to his grandson, \u201cPlease do a rewrite.\u201d\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<blockquote><p><strong><span style=\"color: #ff6600;\">If you liked the article, do not forget to share it with your friends.
