Directors, Producers & Actors Discuss the Role of Facts in Film | Berlinale Talents 2019
The following is inspired by true events. This session invites two directors and actors to chart the metamorphosis of facts into fiction. North Macedonian director Teona Mitevska and actress Labina Mitevska, discuss the making of “God Exists, Her Name is Petrunya” (2019 Competition), dealing with a unique religious ceremony in Eastern Macedonia. They are joined by director Guy Nattiv and actress Danielle Macdonald, who come to the Berlinale with “Skin” (2019 Panorama), the biographical drama of an American neo-Nazi in search of redemption. Taken as case studies, these films raise fascinating questions regarding the transposition of real events into fiction, the opportunities for political commentary this process offers and the difficulties an actor can face when asked to embody a contemporary.
