Damien Manivel and Kohei Igarashi's The Night I Swam (2017), which is receiving an exclusive global online premiere on Mubi, is showing from March 23 - April 22, 2018 as a Special Discovery. Translation for the film's shooting diary has been made by Maureen Gueunet.1. Takara Facing The TVAs we shot the film in chronological order, this was one of the first sequence we did with Takara. It’s the middle of the night and he watches TV in silence, engrossed in a cartoon. His face is very much one of a child, and yet we can feel the strains of insomnia, his solitude while everyone is sleeping. What surprised us was his ability to forget the camera’s presence. In this instance, all of the film’s crew is around him but Takara is elsewhere. We understood then that to obtain genuine feelings from him, he should play states of mind he...

Close-Up is a feature that spotlights films now playing on Mubi. Damien Manivel's The Night I Swam (2017), which is receiving an exclusive global online premiere on Mubi, is showing from March 23 - April 22, 2018 as a Special Discovery.Stirred from slumber by his father’s pre-dawn departure for work, the six-year-old protagonist of Damien Manivel and Kohei Igarashi’s The Night I Swam makes a game effort to go back to bed, but it’s to no avail: His mind is too awake. And while it may not seem obvious at first, this otherwise ordinary little boy (Takara Kogawa) is everything you could hope for in a movie hero. To the wordless daylong odyssey that awaits him, his response is perfect receptiveness.In rich silence, the boy helps himself to a snack and dabbles in presumably regular aesthetic pursuits—drawing, photography—before trying to budge his sleeping mom. Then, after...

The Night I SwamThe Vienna International Film Festival—or the Viennale, for short—has for many years been a kind of respite, perhaps even a bit of a beautiful secret outside of European cinephilia, for those looking to be invigorated by the ever-renewing promise of cinema. First under the direction of Alexander Horwath, who left the festival in 1997 and in 2002 took the lead of the illustrious Austrian Film Museum, and for the last 21 years under the guidance of Hans Hurch, the Viennale has cultivated that rare thing: A cultural institution that has a distinct and idiosyncratic sensibility of taste. It is a yearly event in which you can find the rare gems of the mainstream vividly mixed with expansive retrospectives, the latest films from major auteurs and exciting debutantes alike, with no fear of short or medium length works, a strong love for the avant-garde and an even more fierce...

Mubi is hosting the exclusive global online premiere of Damien Manivel's Le parc (2016). It is showing from February 10 - March 12, 2017 as a Special Discovery.Damien Manivel"Do you make films?" was the first question that Damien Manivel asked me once I turned off the recording. It was then that I realized that my interview might have been a bit heavy on the technicalities about the production and other decisions made in the film. I was honest and I said, "I try to, but it’s hard." Trying to make your own little films makes me appreciate certain things above others, especially when the concept and story offered are, on the surface, so simple, like in Manivel’s Le parc. A little over an hour long, in Le parc we see two teenagers, a girl (Naomie Vogt-Roby) and a boy (Maxime Bachellerie), meeting for the first time and having an...
