Nachavule

His Name (The Clown)

They met in the summer, in the rain. A film of carnival and silence. His Name (The Clown) is a surface film – based on newspaper news and daily life in large Brazilian cities, but without any direct link to any real event. Violence, joy and silence are worked on in the film in order to build a space where characters are as real as they are intangible – in a narrative of short marked sequences, in which a whirlwind of events mixes with a stitching of fragments and gaps: He is a quiet man and divides his time between his violent work in downtown Rio de Janeiro and his boarding house in Catumbi. She is the girl who appears in his life, on a rainy afternoon – and soon things start to go by very quickly. A film of carnival and silence, of love and anger – of apathy and will. A chronicle of the conflicts and festivities of a city sewn between hills, forests and cement. A tribute to Rio, perhaps?

Thijs is a ripe-age Dutch tomato grower. His adult daughters plan to have him move in a skyscraper-flat, leaving home and professional life, but he takes his adolescent (half-)Moroccon grandson Omar's advice to refuse and keep living. Thijs even lets the cheerful rascal coach his love-life, which lands him on a blind date with Jacky, an energetic Flemish woman, who won't take no for an answer but turns up at his door-step till he consents, and soon drags him into evening life, preparing for a dance contest. Soon after Omar turns up, listless and lazier then ever, runaway from school and home. The obvious reason for the horny hound's hanging head is a girl: Mergal is foxy, Turkish and as smitten as he, but her burly big brother Erhan will only allow a boy to go steady with her who has proven himself his better on the field in the traditional manly sport of oil-wrestling. Now Thijs...

Luke and Brie are indeed, on a first date. At turns exhilarating and frustrating, the night will take them from a dive bar to a house party to the streets of Highland Park. Throughout the evening, earnest Luke does his best to defend his big night from a who’s who of interlopers as he tries to decipher what he views as the many mixed signals from gregarious Brie. As the pair’s developing relationship inches from flirtation towards something more substantive, the evening’s myriad distractions will melt away leaving only snowballing misunderstandings mixed with electric moments of connection, each with the potential to be either the igniting spark or the crushing end of their young relationship.
