Mérette. 1982. DVD.

 

 FR. Mérette est un téléfilm suisse réalisé par Jean-Jacques Lagrange, sur un scénario de Jean-Louis Roncoroni d'après un récit de Gottfried Keller, diffusé en 1982.
Mérette est l'histoire d'une jeune fille révoltée, au XIXe siècle, qui en veut à Dieu de lui avoir repris sa mère. Elle refuse l'éducation très protestante que son père tente de lui imposer en la plaçant auprès du pasteur Magnoux, dans la campagne vaudoise. Oppressée par ces règles religieuses, Mérette trouve refuge dans son imaginaire et dans la douceur de la nature. Mais la société des adultes est intransigeante…
Mérette a reçu le prix du Festival du Film d'Auteur de San Remo 1982 ainsi que le prix Louis-Philippe Kammans des télévisions francophones.
EN. Mérette is a pretty child, living within a patrician, strictly Calvinist family in the Switzerland of the 19th century. She is happy, until her mother dies, and she blames God, and gives up her religion. Her family turns against her, the villagers reject her, and her priest drives her into isolation.

A film a cigányság 70-es évekbeli világának dokumentarista jellegű bemutatása.
EN. The director of Meztelen Vagy was imprisoned for many years during the latter part of the Stalin era and is known for his highly imagistic and symbolic storytelling techniques. This film tells its story in the same way, and at no point is the story made explicit. Images of love, death, suicide, violence and mutilation dominate.

 Drømmen (Danish "The Dream", English: We Shall Overcome) is a 2006 Danish film based on a true story about a young boy's crusade against a dictatorial headmaster of the "old school".

Denmark 1969. When 13 year old Frits is caught in the girls locker room, school principal Svendsen almost tears Frits' ear off. It has to be stitched in the hospital. The doctor says this time the principal has gone a step too far. Parents, colleagues, and class mates react affected by the incident. But it's not that easy to file a child abuse charge against the powerful principal who is highly esteemed in the small community. When the police say it's a school matter, Frits' parents are hesitant about going to the school board because other parents had to move away after their child abuse charge was turned down. But with the help of young hippie teacher Freddie and some of Frits' classmates, the determination of Frits' parents grows to bring down the violent principal.

Director: Niels Arden Oplev.
