Submarino

MUST SEE: Thomas Vinterberg's Submarino (Denmark, 2010) - Neglected by an abusive, alcoholic mother, two young brothers grow into emotionally limited, damaged adults in the almost unrelentingly grim Danish drama "Submarino," from helmer Thomas Vinterberg ("The Celebration," "Dear Wendy"). Non-judgmental, minutely observed portrait of despair and degradation reps a tough sell even on home turf, where local auds may be curious to see what one of Dogma 95's founding fathers makes of an unflinching contempo novel. 2010BERic, 2010EFA, 2011BODIL, 2011ROBFEST.
