Festen (Dogma 95)
Thomas Vinterberg / DK, 1998 / 105 min.
Lars von Triers and Thomas Vinterberg’s Dogma 95 movement which was started 30 years ago, got off to a bang with the abuse drama Festen. The film was an international success: true emotions, truly human stories, no made-up Hollywood stuff: Dogma 95 filmmakers were to cleanse cinema.
The Klingenfeldt family gathers to celebrate the 60th birthday of its head. The preceding year one of the daughters committed suicide, something the family wishes to commemorate.
