Intimate and gruelling
Most films about people undergoing a slow death have an inevitable sentimentality about them. It’s a feeling I resist and then fall for – like eating too much chocolate. Not so Stopped on Track, a new German film. It’s about a man, Frank, who is diagnosed with an aggressive brain tumour. It’s gruelling and true. It combines all the wretchedness, tedium and sadness that accompanies a slow death. And I think the audience feels these three qualities in equal measure, with a couple of light moments thrown in. It is about a journey – the most universal of journeys and one that we often resist seeing up close and slow. Very powerful. Great acting. I did not feel emotionally manipulated, just very sad. And a bit bored at times – which felt appropriate.

I felt there was some irony at the expense of the health profession. Their capacity to do anything in the face of his dying and the terrible burden this placed on his family seemed limited in the extreme, and their words felt kind but hollow. I doubt that this was the intention of the director, Andreas Dresen, who also made Cloud Nine – a film I really liked at MIFF a couple of years ago. In this film, he used a mix of professional actors and these real-life health professionals, and much of the dialogue was improvised as the filming took place.

One aspect that I liked was that Frank used a mobile phone to records short bursts about himself and to capture his family reacting to him. This mini film within a film not only gave us insights into how he was feeling but mimicked, for me, the fragments of memory that you retain of someone who has died. This is an intimate and authentic film.

Inside a blighted household!
This film is the most heart-wrenching film i have seen in a long time!The film begins with a close of shot of a couple listening to a doctor tell the man that he has a advanced stage malignant tumor.Tears roll down the cheeks of the wife while the man looks completely bewildered .The doctor interrupts the conversation to take a call from colleague about expanding the operation theaters .The camera never leaves the couples faces while he talks on phone.We see much later in the scene when he answers the questions of the devastated couple.The director never looks away and we are not allowed to also.The end is inevitable and we see the family slowly come to terms with the eventuality.The absolute level of intimacy the viewer is accorded is makes us more than a spectator in this situation.The camera looks very closely to the hero as his health declines rapidly.The children are confused,unable to fully comprehend the meaning of death.The 8 year old son asks “papa are you really going to die?” and then literally in the same breath”will i get your iPhone”.Frank the protagonist pulls out his iphone to start recoding a video diary, which he starts soon after learning of his terminal illness.His wide character is another great performance,she is a tram driver and the way she copes with her husbands very difficult illness is both admirable and heartbreaking. The film raises many questions about death and meaning of life and the absence of the discussion of an afterlife or God for that matter is of importance here.The family copes and fights with the illness as best as they can without resorting to praying for miracles.there is simply no waste. This is a amazing film with stupendous performances.The direction is intimate and uncompromising.
