Flocking a FILM by BEATA GÅRDELER It’S a Small Swedish Community, Idyllic on the Surface flocking A FILM BY BEATA GÅRDELER It’s a small Swedish community, idyllic on the surface. synopsisBut when 14 year old Jennifer claims to have been raped by classmate Alexander, everything changes. The rumour rapidly spreads throughout the community, and more and more people are convinced that Jennifer is lying. This is the beginning of a stirred up lynch chase in which an entire village turns against a young girl and her family. In this brutal collective, evidence and decisions of court mean nothing and grown up people start laying down their own rules and laws. There is no such thing as going too far. The only thing that matters is sticking with the flock. director’s vision I grew up in a small community in northern Sweden Sweden, to have the right dialect and personal experien- where the social behavior and unwritten laws are very ce of growing up in a small village. All the other actors old fashioned. At the same time, many things have were trained to have the right dialect to create a more changed thanks to social media. I felt that this film had realistic feeling of this village. To create a special feeling an unusually important mission: to tell an outstanding of the visual light we decided to shoot almost everything story about people’s deepest fears and what they lead outside in nighttime.

What kind of mechanisms makes a ordinary village to When we worked inside we wanted to block out the light turn against a 14 –year old girl and condemn her? These with curtains to create a darker, trapped feeling. things happen in a small Swedish village but it could take place anywhere. I put a tremendous effort into the research of this Jennifer’s character film. Based on what I’ve found, I hope that I’ve created a You see many female victims on film. But I wanted drama that is both thrilling and poetic. Jennifer to be more complex and interesting. I wanted her to be aggressive and also in some way unlikeable. About some of my work Fatime in herself has so much intensity and presence In this film it was hard to find the young actors, which I don’t think is possible to act when you are 15 especially because I wanted them to be from northern years old. writer’s vision ”Flocking” is a film about what a community is capable to do when its values are threatened. It’s about class and gender but also about community structure – structure that’s not unique for Sweden, we see it all around the world. For me it has been important to tell not only the story of a victim, but also from the perspective of a young rapist. A rape is created by the society we live in. A society where everyone tells you to follow the flock.

Our drive is to find stories both provocative and brave. ”Flocking” is not only about the girl, the victim.

  • Introduction
    Introduction We look at the world once, in childhood. The rest is memory. Louise Gluck A child’s world always has had odd dimensions, as narrow as the backyard or a corner of the kitchen, but as broad as the imagination. Reed Karaim We have each of us a life story, an inner narrative—whose continuity, “whose sense, is our lives. It might be said that each of us constructs and lives “a narrative,” and that this narrative is our identities. Oliver Sacks Perhaps the most common myth about war is that it ends when the textbooks say it does, when the cease-fi res begin and the documents are signed. Ann Hagedorn Breaking the Silence Until relatively recently, the stories of Finland’s estimated 80,000 or more sotalapsi or krigsbarn (“war children” in Finnish and Swedish, respectively) were shared primarily among themselves. Most of these children were sent to Sweden for safekeeping during World War II, but some 4,000 were transported to Denmark and elsewhere. While the majority of sto- ries that follow relate the experiences of children sent to Sweden, there are a few that describe the experiences of those sent to Denmark or who remained in Finland throughout the war, as well as the story of one little girl who during Finland’s diffi cult postwar years was sent to the United States, where her childhood was blighted by confusion, servitude, and humiliation. Considering the number of such children, a number rivaling Finland’s approximately 89,000 military casualties,1 it is surprising that more has not been written about “the world’s largest child transfer,” now perceived as “a great social-historical mistake.”2 As an identifying label, “war children” has generally come to refer only to children sent to other countries in wartime (and, of course, to the adults they later became), but for the purposes of the present volume I 2 Sue Saffl e would like to extend the defi nition to include children who lived on the home front during the war.
