Docugast Heddy Honigmann over 'Bread Day'
-
0:07 - 0:11It’s a documentary which wouldn't be paid for by a single Dutch film fund.
-
0:12 - 0:22Simply put, it is about a train delivering bread to a village in a snow-covered landscape.
-
0:23 - 0:26If you would write a script, you would write...
-
0:26 - 0:30the train runs, is pushed to, through the snow to the village.
-
0:30 - 0:34And the train has to... delivers bread to the village.
-
0:34 - 0:39And then one would say: and what happens next? What's the dramatic storyline?
-
0:39 - 0:42Or, what else is happening?
-
0:42 - 0:46And then you could reply: Actually, nothing more than the people collecting the bread...
-
0:46 - 0:49...and some small extras.
-
0:49 - 0:53And then one would say: Yes, that could be interesting.
-
0:53 - 0:58No, I don't think that that would happen.
-
1:27 - 1:32I'll never forget that very long shot where the train runs through the snow...
-
1:32 - 1:34...and the people walking next to it.
-
1:34 - 1:38And more and more animals join, dogs and goats.
-
1:40 - 1:45And finally, finally, finally, the train arrives in the village and in one of the carriages...
-
1:45 - 1:49...is the bread, is like a load of bakery items.
-
1:49 - 1:55Well, then the routine of the village just starts.
-
1:55 - 2:00The locals collecting their ration of bread, which is very important....
-
2:00 - 2:06...and from that very long intro in the snow...
-
2:06 - 2:10...where you can somehow feel the climate and the need...
-
2:10 - 2:11...that the village is isolated...
-
2:11 - 2:15...and the need, really, to have bread...
-
2:15 - 2:17...you enter in the... in the...
-
2:17 - 2:23...in the secluded life in the village, just the locals who collect their bread...
-
2:23 - 2:29...the villagers who quarrel about the rations they have received...
-
2:29 - 2:33...the animals that live around them...
-
2:33 - 2:35... you enter a microcosm.
-
4:04 - 4:08This type of films should be made, actually.
-
4:12 - 4:16They are about the bare necessities like having bread.
-
4:19 - 4:22Your basic, basic necessities.
