Marta Balaga Finland’s leading film festival Love & Anarchy is ready to celebrate its 35th edition, free of COVID restrictions and finally able to focus on the films and the audience, says executive director Anna Möttölä in Helsinki.
But it has been a bittersweet time, marked by the loss of Jean-Luc Godard and Lina Wertmüller back in December, whose 1973 film gave the event its name.
While Wertmüller will be celebrated with a screening of “Seven Beauties,” another tragedy is on the team’s mind: the sudden death of Charlbi Dean, the star of Ruben Östlund’s Palme d’Or winner – and the festival’s opening film – “Triangle of Sadness.” “It will be a memorial screening,” says artistic director Pekka Lanerva.
Dean’s co-star, Zlatko Burić, is expected to attend. “All our thoughts go to her family and to the cast and crew. To have such a promising career, not to mention young life, cut so short… We want to pay tribute to her and the work she did in this film,” adds Möttölä.
