PÖFF TV | MEET THE FILMMAKERS - Camilla Arlien If I Die Today Interview

$PÖFF TV | MEET THE FILMMAKERS - Oskars Rupenheit Red Code Blue Interview Tallinn Black Nights Film Festival brings you Meet the Filmmakers episode “Red Code Blue”. Interview with the director Oskars Rupenheits and lead actor Raitis Stūrmanis, interviewer Edvinas Pukšta. Come and step into the conversation and uncover the secrets behind these burning questions: 1) To what extent are the crimes in the film influenced by real-life events? 2) What training or physical preparation was needed for Raitis Sturmanis to perform the film’s action scenes? 3) Did the role allow Raitis Stūrmanis to improvise, or did he stick closely to the written script? 4) Can audiences hope for an extended director’s cut of Red Code Blue given how much footage remained unused? Ask no more—this interview spills the answers you didn’t even know you were chasing. Acclaimed Latvian director Oskars Rupenheits brings his new film “Red Code Blue” to PÖFF — a story that plunges into the reality of 1990s Riga, a time when street rules, corruption and survival instincts often outweighed official law. At the center of the film is an idealistic investigator forced to make choices that no longer fit within the boundaries of legality. Rupenheits’ work is marked by a sharp eye for the social fractures of his country and an ability to create an atmosphere that lingers with the viewer long after leaving the cinema.

Tallinna Pimedate Ööde filmifestival toob teieni saate “Meet the filmmakers”, peaosas film “Tumesinine evangeelium”. Intervjuu filmi režissööri Oskars Rupenheitsi ja peaosatäitja Raitis Sturmanisega, kellega vestles Edvinas Pukšta. Kuula kaasa ja saa vastused nendele põletavatele küsimustele: 1) Mil määral on filmis kujutatud kuriteod inspireeritud päriselus aset leidnud sündmustest? 2) Milline füüsiline ettevalmistus oli Raitis Sturmanisel vajalik, et action-stseenidega hakkama saada? 3) Kas roll andis Raitis Sturmanisele võimaluse improviseerida või hoidis ta enamjaolt stsenaariumist kinni? 4) Kas arvestades, kui palju materjali lõppversiooni ei jõudnud, võivad vaatajad jääda ootama ka „Red Code Blue“ pikemat directors cut versiooni? Tundub põnev? Ära muretse, vastused pole üldse kaugel… Tunnustatud Läti režissöör Oskars Rupenheits toob PÖFFile oma uue filmi „Tumesinine evangeelium“, mis sukeldub 1990. aastate Riiga: aega, mil tänavareeglid, korruptsioon ja ellujäämisinstinkt määrasid kõvasti rohkem kui ametlikud seadused. Filmi keskmes on idealistlik uurija, keda elu sunnib tegema otsuseid, mis ei mahu seaduse raamidesse. Oskars Rupenheitsi loomingut iseloomustab terav pilk oma ühiskonna valupunktidele ning oskus ehitada atmosfääri, mis jääb vaatajat saatma ka pärast kinosaalist lahkumist.
