Father Mother Sister Brother: il film e l’edizione home video
Father Mother Sister Brother is a kind of anti-action film; its fine and submerged style is meticulously constructed to allow the accumulation of small details – almost as flowers carefully arranged in three delicate compositions. The synergy with the master directors of photography Frederick Elmes and Yorick Le Saux, the brilliant editor Afonso Gonçalves and other frequent collaborators elevates what was born in the form of words on paper in a form of pure cinema.
Three stories that tell the relationships between adult children, their parents rather distant and between brothers. Each of the three parts is set in the present and each in a different country.
Father is set in the Northeast of the United States, Mother in Dublin, and Sister Brother in Paris. A series of intimate portraits, observed without judgment, in which the comedy is crossed by subtle moments of melancholy.
Jim Jarmusch signs a work that confirms his authorial look, unique and recognizable, able to observe with irony and delicacy the fragility of human relationships. Structured as a triptych, the film interweaves three autonomous but deeply connected stories, set in different places and contexts, which focus complex family relationships: children and distant parents, brothers who struggle to find themselves, individuals unable to communicate really.
Between comedy and melancholy, the film builds a series of intimate and suspended portraits, observed without judgment, in which silences, everyday details and seemingly minimal moments become revealers. The result is an elegant and deeply human choral story, reflecting on the universal need for connection and the difficulty of filling emotional distances.
The home video edition in blu-ray, very simple, has as special content only the trailer.
