The experience of nascent and confusing feelings is vital to the cinema of André Téchiné (« Farewell to the Night », « Competition »). The French master shares insights into the characters he chooses to create, like the rebellious youths of his 1994 success « Wild Reeds » and the later « Being 17 », which premiered at the Berlinale in 2016. Interior conflicts often spawn violent outbursts in his work, giving the young actors who embody such protagonists a chance to play a wide emotional register; this is perhaps why Téchiné has helped to launch many actors’ careers. Taking a personal selection of his works into consideration, he discusses his influential casting choices, the creative development of his films and his imaginative responses to challenging production processes.
