Festen - Wikipedia. Festen is a 1. 99. Danish film, produced by Nimbus Film and directed by Thomas Vinterberg. It was released under the title The Celebration in the United States. The film tells the story of a family gathering to celebrate their father's 6. At the dinner, the eldest son publicly accuses his father of sexually abusing both him and his twin sister (who has recently killed herself). Vinterberg was inspired to write it with Mogens Rukov, based on a hoax broadcast by a Danish radio station.[1]It was the first film created under Dogme 9.

Danish film makers who preferred simple production values and naturalistic performances.[2] The film was selected as the Danish entry for the Best Foreign Language Film at the 7. Academy Awards, but was not accepted as a nominee.[3][4]Respected family patriarch and businessman Helge (Henning Moritzen) is celebrating his 6. Gathered together amongst many family and friends are his wife Else (Birthe Neumann), his sullen eldest son Christian (Ulrich Thomsen), his well- traveled daughter Helene (Paprika Steen), and his boorish younger son Michael (Thomas Bo Larsen). Christian's twin sister, Linda, has recently taken her life at the hotel. Before the celebration dinner, Helene finds Linda's suicide note, but hides it in a medicine bottle after becoming upset by the contents (which are not revealed to the audience). Michael fights with his wife, whom he had earlier abandoned on the roadside with their three children, and then has sex with her. Michael later is pulled aside by a waitress with whom he had an affair (and had made pregnant) and then beats her when she disparages Helge.

Later, during dinner, Christian makes a speech to the family in which he accuses his father Helge of sexually abusing him and his late sister Linda. Atlantis: Milo`S Return Full Movie Online Free. There is an initial shocked silence, but the party gradually returns to normal, as the guests react by silent denial.

In a private conversation in the pantry, a seemingly baffled Helge asks Christian about his motivations for slandering him, and Christian appears to recant his accusation. However, Christian is spurred to further action by hotel chef Kim (Bjarne Henriksen), a childhood friend who knows about the abuse. Christian then stands up and continues his toast by accusing Helge of causing Linda's death. Helge speaks to Christian alone and threateningly offers to announce in a toast Christian's troubled personal history, impotence with women and his perhaps inappropriately close relationship with his late sister, Linda. Christian says nothing in response to the threat.

Further exacerbating the tensions of the day, Helene's black boyfriend Gbatokai (Gbatokai Dakinah) shows up, enraging the racist Michael who later leads most of the partygoers in singing the Danish song "Jeg har set en rigtig negermand" in a racist way to offend him. During a toast, Else makes a series of back- handed compliments towards her children, accusing Christian of having an overactive imagination as a child and asking him to apologize for his earlier accusation. Christian responds by accusing her of interrupting Helge during one of the rapes, yet not interfering with the incident, and calling her a "cunt". Michael and two other guests violently eject Christian from the hotel. When Christian walks back in, they beat Christian and tie him to a tree in the nearby woods.

Christian unties himself and returns to the house. Helene has a headache and asks one of the waitresses (Pia) to go and fetch her pills.

Pia finds Linda's suicide note in the medicine bottle and gives it to Christian. Christian gives the suicide note to Helene and leaves a note with the toastmaster. The toastmaster reads aloud the note that urges Helene to read the suicide note to the guests. Helene does so. Linda's note states that she decided to kill herself after feeling overwhelmed by dreams in which her father was molesting her again. In a fit of anger, Helge admits to the abuse in front of all the guests by saying that it was all Christian was good for. He then leaves the dining room with the guests stunned. Christian, who is drunk, faints after walking out of the dining hall and imagines seeing Linda.

When he awakes, he learns from Helene that Michael is missing. We learn that the drunken Michael has called Helge outside and then beat his father severely, promising him that he will never see his grandchildren again. Next morning shows the family (excluding the parents) and guests eating breakfast nonchalantly. Then Helge comes in and speaks to the group admitting his wrongdoing and declaring his love for his children.

Michael coolly dismisses their father from the table, stating that he should now leave so that they can have breakfast. Christian reveals that he is going back to Paris, and asks Pia (who has known Christian for years) to accompany him.

The movie's score is minimal. Its first musical piece is a rendition of Frank Mills's "Music Box Dancer," played over the closing credits.[5][6]Festen is best known for being the first Dogme 9. Denmark is Dogme #1 – Festen).

Dogme films are governed by a manifesto that insists on specific production and narrative limitations (such as banning any post- production sound editing), in part as a protest against the expensive Hollywood- style film- making. The film was shot on a Sony DCR- PC3 Handycam on standard Mini- DV cassettes.[7]Inspiration[edit]Some years after making the film, Vinterberg talked about its inspiration: a young man told the story on a radio show of the host Keld Koplev. Vinterberg was told about it by the friend of a psychiatric nurse who claimed to have treated the young man.

He listened to the radio programme and asked the scriptwriter Mogens Rukov to write a screenplay on the events,[1] as if it were the young man's own story. It has later been revealed that the story was completely made up, by the patient receiving mental care.[8]Reception[edit]Festen has earned positive reviews.

Based on 3. 4 reviews collected by the film review aggregator Rotten Tomatoes, 9. Roger Ebert gave the film three out of four stars, writing that the filmmixes farce and tragedy so completely that it challenges us to respond at all. Vinterberg handles his material so cannily that we must always look for clues to the intended tone.[1. Psychologist Richard Gartner,[1. Festen is a praiseworthy film that accurately depicts the consequences of sexual abuse: The extent of the father's transgressions is revealed bit by bit in successive revelations.

We see that the son has been severely damaged by his boyhood abuse, and has been incapable of intimate relatedness throughout his life. His sister, who has committed suicide, was also deeply damaged. The father denies the incest through most of the movie, and this denial is conveyed and reinforced in the reactions of those who hear the accusations. The partygoers are momentarily shocked by each disclosure, but then continue to celebrate the birthday in a nearly surrealistic manner that serves as a dramatic enactment of the chronic denial often seen in incestuous families.
