The town has come alive, and at the centre of all the madness and expectations we find Sebastian, who is engaged to the beautiful Claudia. However, when Maria shows up, they reunite in a ripe grain field, setting Sebastian’s whole life on a catastrophic course. At long last, the world famous opera singer arrives to the sound of the cheering masses and soon after he becomes acquainted with Sebastian’s break up with Claudia and love affair with Maria. During a grand gala dinner the skeletons come rattling out of the closet. A man has come home - and nothing is as it used to be! PLOT SUMMARY: It’s summertime and we find ourselves in the countryside in a pretty little provincial town, where the bustle is almost chaotic. Everybody is preparing for a celebration: The town is turning 750 years, and the famous opera singer, Karl Kristian Schmidt, who was born and raised in the area, is on his way home to lend lustre to it with his performance. A master chef has been summoned from abroad to prepare the ultimate feast. The town’s posh hotel is committed to do its very best to impress their foreign guests. There are banners, flags and canopies everywhere, as well a various invited and uninvited orchestras joining in. The otherwise quiet streets have come alive. In the middle of this bustle of madness and expectations we find Sebastian; a tall and handsome young man and a quiet person with clear plans for his life: He’s going to marry the equally beautiful Claudia, who works at the town mayor’s office. Just one thing in Sebastian’s life is not perfect: He stutters. Could it have started back when his drunken and self-absorbed father let himself be run over by a train? Or was is when his father’s sister subsequently comforted his mother so well, that Sebastian ended up growing up with two mothers? One thing is for certain: He knows that he will do anything in his power to avoid ending up as the loser and an unfaithful artist his father was. Sebastian wants to mind his job in the kitchen of the hotel, marry his fiancee and find his own way into the world. But then Maria shows up. She left the town a while back under mysterious circumstances but now she has returned to take a job as a maid at the hotel. Their old, unconditional love is set aflame again and in a ripe grain field they reunite, setting Sebastian’s whole life on a catastrophic course. Honest as he is, Sebastian confesses to a furious Claudia; his mother chooses this time of all to lift the lid off the past; and as the finishing touch, his newly found love Maria also breaks up with him. At long last, the world famous opera singer arrives to the sound of the cheering masses and escorted by an army of drivers and useless assistants. He’s a world-weary and unbalanced man – and much to the despair of the chef, the hotel manager and the mayor, he has already lost his appetite completely. In the kitchen basement of the hotel, the pressure is mounting on the chef with his sensitive nervous system, and higher up in 2 the house the world famous singer’s wife unexpectedly demands to be given a private suite. However, as fate would have it, the singer learns about Sebastian’s break up with Claudia and love affair with Maria – and this revives some genuine emotion in this otherwise blasé man. He re-experiences his own youth and takes on the role of fatherly mentor to the perplexed Sebastian of whom he wants to make a man! A man who speaks without a stutter and knows how to hold on to his loved one. Finally, the celebration can begin and during the grand gala dinner the skeletons come rattling out of the closets. A man has come home and nothing is as it used to be. 3 ABOUT THE FILM AND ITS DIRECTOR: A MAN COMES HOME is Thomas Vinterberg’s first Danish feature film in 9 years. After having been out in the world, Vinterberg has returned to his Danish starting point to create a dramatic comedy, which attempts to take stock of the necessity and vulnerability of love through a series of intrigues. THE DIRECTOR’S COMMENTS ”A MAN COMES HOME is my attempt to return to the starting point I left behind the last time I made a Danish film - an attempt to return after a long lasting search in other languages and in other genres to my own form of expression. If there is to be any meaning to all the madness, I find it necessary to return to my starting point once in a while and take stock. What interests me is the frailty of human beings: Their search for intimacy, their pretences, and their often completely hopeless management of their emotional lives. In A MAN COMES HOME we attempt to compare the completely pure, youthful and innocent with the corrupted, lusty and failed human being. Through a series of intrigues, we also attempt to take stock of the necessity and possibility of love on two levels: Falling in love, which can be so grand, so heavy and so incomprehensible that it becomes paralysing – and the love that has faded over the years and threatens to leave an echoing vacuum. We wish to show a reflection of a life that has past in a life, which is at its very beginning. We wish to touch upon the disturbing and terrifying aspects of having to choose one’s course through life – and the miserable, sometimes desperate aspects of a life that is suddenly coming to an end. The sense of time passing and life diminishing is a constant cause of wonder and anxiety in my body… and I imagine I’m not the only one who feels this September 2007, Thomas Vinterberg 4 THE CAST: OLIVER MØLLER KNAUER / SEBASTIAN Oliver was born in 1986 and grew up in Copenhagen. He plays the leading role in A MAN COMES HOME, which is his debut as an actor. After finishing his compulsory school years Oliver went on to high school and is currently an apprentice as a photographer. He has decided to finish his education before he comes to a decision on whether he wants to be in more feature films. RONJA MANNOV OLESEN / MARIA Ronja was born in 1987 and grew up in Copenhagen. She has a bit of previous experience in the acting profession, incl. a minor role in BRYGGEREN (1996) and the leading role in the novella film THE SNOW QUEEN (2001). Since then, she has graduated high school and now she plays the role of Maria in Vinterberg’s A MAN COMES HOME. HELENE REINGAARD NEUMANN / CLAUDIA Helene was born in 1987 and grew up in central Copenhagen as the daughter of attorney Per Neumann and actress/lawyer Elsebeth Reingaard. In addition to her debut in the role of Claudia in A MAN COMES HOME, Helene will appear in Niels Arden Oplev’s upcoming film TWO WORLDS, opening in 2008. THOMAS BO LARSEN / KARL KRISTIAN SCHMIDT Thomas Bo Larsen is one of Denmark’s most sought-after actors in both films and theatre. After the 8th grade he became an apprentice at a bakery, then a manual labourer and later on a soldier. In 1984, Thomas Bo Larsen had been trained as a glazier, and headed out on a trip around the world – before being accepted to Odense School of Theatre in 1987. He had his breakthrough with the leading role in Vinterberg’s Oscar-nominated short film LAST ROUND in 1993 and his feature film debut was in the film THE BIGGEST HEROES (1996). Since then, he has appeared in numerous Danish films, incl. most prominently CELEBRATION (1998), MONA’S WORLD (2001), BIG PLANS (2005) and most recently LOTTO (2006). Thomas Bo Larsen has appeared in all of Thomas Vinterberg’s previous films. MORTEN GRUNWALD / THE MANAGER Walter Morten Grunwald was born in Odense. As a teenager he joined the choir at Odense Theatre and was permitted to play minor roles as an extra before he decided to pursue a career in acting. He was trained at the Odense School of Theatre 1956-57 and debuted as Roderich Jr. in THE LONG CHRISTMAS DINNER in Husum on Odense Theatre’s tour. Afterwards, he attended The Royal Danish Theatre’s School of Theatre 1957-60. In the years 1964-1970, he appeared in 4-5 films every year. The first one was EEN BLANDT MANGE (ONE AMONG MANY) from 1961, in which he plays a guy in a leather jacket and since then he has amassed roles in about fifty feature films, among which he 5 became famous for his roles as Agent Frede in the Danish James Bond-genre spoofs OPERATION LOVEBIRDS and RELAX FREDDIE and since 1968 for the 14 films about The Olsen Gang. There, he played the eager, somewhat flighty and primitive Benny with the catch phrase "Skidegodt, Egon" (Approx.: “Damn good, Egon”), which has even become a familiar quotation in Denmark.

    Presents ANOTHER ROUND A film by Thomas Vinterberg 116 mins, Denmark, 2020 Language: Danish with English subtitles Official Selection: Cannes 2020 and TIFF 2020 Distribution Publicity Mongrel Media Inc Bonne Smith 217 – 136 Geary Ave Star PR Toronto, Ontario, Canada, M6H 4H1 Tel: 416-488-4436 Tel: 416-516-9775 Fax: 416-516-0651 Twitter: @starpr2 E-mail: [email protected] E-mail: [email protected] www.mongrelmedia.com LOG LINE Another Round is a fun, moving, life-affirming and thought-provoking drama about friendship, freedom, love – and alcohol. SYNOPSIS There’s a theory that we should be born with a small amount of alcohol in our blood, and that modest inebriation opens our minds to the world around us, diminishing our problems and increasing our creativity. Heartened by that theory, Martin and three of his friends, all weary high school teachers, embark on an experiment to maintain a constant level of intoxication throughout the workday. If Churchill won WW2 in a heavy daze of alcohol, who knows what a few drops might do for them and their students? Initial results are positive, and the teachers’ little project turns into a genuine academic study. Both their classes and their results continue to improve, and the group feels alive again! As the units are knocked back, some of the participants see further improvement and others go off the rails. It becomes increasingly clear that while alcohol may have fueled great results in world history, some bold acts carry consequences. DIRECTOR’S INTENT THOMAS VINTERBERG “I never drink before breakfast.” The quote is from Churchill, who helped to defeat the Germans and win World War II, while under the excessive and constant influence of alcohol.

    International Casting Directors Network Index 01 Welcome 02 About the ICDN 04 Index of Profiles 06 Profiles of Casting Directors 76 About European Film Promotion 78 Imprint 79 ICDN Membership Application form Gut instinct and hours of research “A great film can feel a lot like a fantastic dinner party. Actors mingle and clash in the best possible lighting, and conversation is fraught with wit and emotion. The director usually gets the bulk of the credit. But before he or she can play the consummate host, someone must carefully select the right guests, send out the invites, and keep track of the RSVPs”. ‘OSCARS: The Role Of Casting Director’ by Monica Corcoran Harel, The Deadline Team, December 6, 2012 Playing one of the key roles in creating that successful “dinner” is the Casting Director, but someone who is often over-looked in the recognition department. Everyone sees the actor at work, but very few people see the hours of research, the intrinsic skills, the gut instinct that the Casting Director puts into finding just the right person for just the right role. It’s a mix of routine and inspiration which brings the characters we come to love, and sometimes to hate, to the big screen. The Casting Director’s delicate work as liaison between director, actors, their agent/manager and the studio/network figures prominently in decisions which can make or break a project. It’s a job that can't garner an Oscar, but its mighty importance is always felt behind the scenes. In July 2013, the Academy of Motion Pictures of Arts and Sciences (AMPAS) created a new branch for Casting Directors, and we are thrilled that a number of members of the International Casting Directors Network are amongst the first Casting Directors invited into the Academy.

  • Programme Notes
    Programme Notes Monday 9th August 7.30pm Another Round (Druk) (15) In this highly enjoyable award-winning Danish film, four middle-aged men deal with life’s disappointments by experimenting with alcohol, with mixed results. Faced with stale careers as teachers, failing marriages and mid-life crisis, Martin, Tommy, Nikolaj and Peter decide to try out a pseudo-scientific theory – that people’s lives can be improved by maintaining a low level of alcohol in their system at all times. Taking the project seriously, the friends set themselves strict rules and conduct research into how many successful public figures were habitual drinkers. Initially, they find that sipping during the day and sustaining a low-level of alcohol in the workplace makes them more relaxed, happier and self-confident. But when they start to pursue the idea further, are the risks of the intoxicating social experiment worth taking? Another Round is the latest collaboration between director Thomas Vinterberg, co-writer Tobias Lindholm and Mads Mikkelsen, who plays Martin. In 2012 the trio made The Hunt, an award-winning film which in which Mikkelsen played a kindergarten teacher wrongly accused of being a paedophile. In the hands of many directors Another Round could easily have descended into an absurd broad comedy or a tedious polemic about alcoholism. But Vinterberg avoids the pitfalls of both – he never makes fun of his protagonists and the story makes it clear that drinking can bring pleasure as well as pain. Mikkelsen, always an exceptional actor, is perfection throughout, brilliantly but subtly showing Martin’s transition from depression to rejuvenation – and then beyond.

  • Scaramouche and the Commedia Dell'arte
    Scaramouche Sibelius’s horror story Eija Kurki © Finnish National Opera and Ballet archives / Tenhovaara Scaramouche. Ballet in 3 scenes; libr. Paul [!] Knudsen; mus. Sibelius; ch. Emilie Walbom. Prod. 12 May 1922, Royal Dan. B., CopenhaGen. The b. tells of a demonic fiddler who seduces an aristocratic lady; afterwards she sees no alternative to killinG him, but she is so haunted by his melody that she dances herself to death. Sibelius composed this, his only b. score, in 1913. Later versions by Lemanis in Riga (1936), R. HiGhtower for de Cuevas B. (1951), and Irja Koskkinen [!] in Helsinki (1955). This is the description of Sibelius’s Scaramouche, Op. 71, in The Concise Oxford Dictionary of Ballet. Initially, however, Sibelius’s Scaramouche was not a ballet but a pantomime. It was completed in 1913, to a Danish text of the same name by Poul Knudsen, with the subtitle ‘Tragic Pantomime’. The title of the work refers to Italian theatre, to the commedia dell’arte Scaramuccia character. Although the title of the work is Scaramouche, its main character is the female dancing role Blondelaine. After Scaramouche was completed, it was then more or less forgotten until it was published five years later, whereupon plans for a performance were constantly being made until it was eventually premièred in 1922. Performances of Scaramouche have 1 attracted little attention, and also Sibelius’s music has remained unknown. It did not become more widely known until the 1990s, when the first full-length recording of this remarkable composition – lasting more than an hour – appeared. Previous research There is very little previous research on Sibelius’s Scaramouche.
