A portrait of a troubled young man
This is a slow moving film, more interested in the character and his position within the small village, than it is in the actual fires themselves. Don’t expect a lot of dramatic sequences.The character that this movie follows is quite interesting. Understanding a pyromaniac is difficult, and I’m sure every case is different. The way this story is presented, you can understand (on some level) what motivates him to do what he does. Some of the best sequences in the film are of him interacting with other locals, where you can feel the tension in him. There’s also a few tragic moments, where you can see how he is struggling to find his place in the small village.
For some reason, the director chooses to downplay the possible tension inherit in this movie. I think I like what he is doing, but I can also imagine someone else making a movie that is just as interesting as a character portrait, but doesn’t feel as slow.
As a Norwegian, I also have to comment on the weird mix of dialects this movie got going on. It kind of breaks the realism of this being a village from the south of Norway. Oh well.
Turning insecurities into fire
This is a story about insecurities and incapability to cope with them. A quiet guy can’t find the right words or socially accepted moves to gain acceptance from his small-town neighbourhoods. The anger of failure comes more and more out of control. He thinks he is control when he has safety-matches in his pocket. From that point on, the character gives thrills to viewers, waiting for the moment when something will terribly go wrong. Movie is more about the atmospherics, fater/mother -son relations and disturbing thrills not big twists and turns.
