Well, I suppose the first blog posting should be kind of a welcome message... Therefore I decided against. :)
I thought of it and felt it would be an unproper usage of words. I would rather like to tell you that I have just came back from the cinema. Gartenbau is playing Sumersault (by Cate Shortland) till 9th of June (so you still have a possibility to see this marvellous movie!) and as being such a fan of Australian cinema, I wanted to see it.
For those, who do not know the movie: it is a visual journey of a spectacular girl, who seduces her mother's boyfriend and is caught while doing so; she decides to leave home and moves to an other city. She is quite naive while being brave enough to find her ways around and survive. In Jindabyne she finds a boy whom she shares a interesting bond with. Though, both of them have issues: he is unable to show his emotions, is scared of what these could be and mean - she is longing for a friendship / relationship and uses all possibilities to get touched by somebody even if it means to get fucked without feelings being involved.
I have taken a walk home, which I do not so often, as I have needed the fresh air afterwards... the film was heavy on the one side, however unbelievably imaginative and visually beautiful which made the heaviness a bit lighter to bear. Though, my emotions about the film are still high. The people, living without acutally speaking to each other, living in their shells while hurting each other. A friend of mine once told me this is what people actually want - to get hurt.
I beg you, speak! Speak out! Now!
P.S. The movie's soundtrack by Decoder Ring is a must!
