Staff Choose The Premiere toast to your friends

Friendship and love are essential aspects of the human experience. It's simple to conclude that they're two of our basic requirements as individuals. They are the bonds that unite us. They keep us together, but they make us fragile. They are the ones we fear of losing them as deeply as we would like to see them beginning. Filmmakers' job is to document the many facets of emotions in all their manners. This is a daunting task However, there are a few instances when films address the vulnerability of human emotion without censorship, it is an effective method of learning about the personal experience of every single one of us. This brings us to today's Staff Pick Premiere: Liv Karin Dahlstrom's "Women&Wine," a comedic exploration of self-destructed pride when it struggles to preserve the friendship that's disappearing. It was awarded an award of the Grand Jury Prize at the 2017 Seattle International Film Festival (full disclosure: I took member of the jury), "Women&Wine" is simultaneously a beautiful, disturbing, and yet well-known portrait of a woman's fight to remain a acquaintance.

The film starts by introducing Turid (Marit Andreassen) and Signe (Jeanne Bee) Two women in their mid-twenties who plan an extravagant celebration of their birthdays for their mutual acquaintance Grete (Turid Gunnes). An innocent prank becomes an insult that causes Turid feeling that she's not anymore considered a friend Pride can stifle confidence and a hilariously cringeworthy incident is what happens. A sensitive and honest representation of friendships and relationships, the film ranges from beautiful and funny to painful and hurtful. According to Dahlstrom who wrote the story with Thorkild Schröpf this incident occurred at a pal's bachelorette party. It led them to contemplate what they thought was the "humor of vulnerability, vulnerability, and the vulnerability that people try to conceal when faced with social pressures. We are both incredibly fascinated by our human minds and the consequences that can be triggered when emotions affect our behavior." In the case of Turid and in a state of confusion due to the fact that Grete does not value their relationship, this event will be a desperate effort to strengthen their bond to climb up the social ladder while falling on her others on the route.

The theme of jealousy and friendship could be something that you're familiar with or an idea for an edgy film about female friendships. Dahlstrom prefers to avoid drama with an approach that's naturalistic and focuses on her characters for compelling and engaging performances with their emotional intensity. Inspired by the daily events that seem to be a small part of life, Dahlstrom realized that "the camera must be able to track the action and the actions of the actors instead of the other way around." In the final day, the movie seamlessly shifts between different scenes, showing the extent to which we reach to keep our family members, and as well as our pride.
