Adapted from a novel of the same name by the Danish writer Herman Bang, it is the story of an aging artist, Claude Zoret, and his love for a young man, Michael, who is his model and prot\u00e9g\u00e9. Zoret gets a commission to paint a portrait of the Countess Zamikow, but he can\u2019t quite capture the expression in her eyes. Michael, however, can. He has fallen in love with her.<\/p>\n<p><em>Michael<\/em> is a chamber play, depicting a few people and their mutual relationships. All significant things remain unspoken. Dreyer has the camera tell the story in glances, facial expressions and objects. For Dreyer, working with the actors was what mattered, guiding them to give nuanced and precise emotional performances to be captured in close-ups.<\/p>\n<p>The screening is organised in cooperation with Goethe Institut in Lithuania.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-3910\" src=\"https:\/\/festivaliskreives.lt\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/GI-text-300x49.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"49\" srcset=\"https:\/\/festivaliskreives.lt\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/GI-text-300x49.png 300w, https:\/\/festivaliskreives.lt\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/GI-text.png 542w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":0,"template":"","programa":[22],"class_list":["post-3831","filmas","type-filmas","status-publish","hentry","programa-uncategorized"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/festivaliskreives.lt\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/filmas\/3831","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/festivaliskreives.lt\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/filmas"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/festivaliskreives.lt\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/filmas"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/festivaliskreives.lt\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=3831"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"programa","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/festivaliskreives.lt\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/programa?post=3831"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
