AT THE CROSS-ROADS
Tonu Aru (USSR)
| 1. | Tonu is an IAC member living in Tallinn in Estonia. Made in 1981, and
photographed in black-and-white by Ylo Keedus, this is a story about a crisis
in marriage, examined first through the eyes of the wife, then by the husband
and finally by their daughter. Each in turn gets out of their car first at
the symbolic cross-roads. There is no dialogue, but a translation, by Tina
Tamman of the BBC Monitoring Unit, Caversham, is available for the voice-over
at the very end of the film - a poetic summary of the harm a rift in love
can cause to a child of the family. Transfer from 16mm film. IAC International Award 1988 |
