Directed by Valeria Gai Germanica: "I can promise that I will no longer take about teenagers"

Natalia Kochetkova, January 15, 2010

on January 11 in an evening broadcast of Channel premiered multiserial proprietary project of the young director Valeria Gai Germanika "School". Author of the acclaimed film "All will die, but I'll stay," received the 61 th Cannes Film Festival in competition "Golden Camera" Special Jury Prize, took the radical as close as possible to the reality series about teenagers. From the first day the film managed to create around themselves is not only a flurry of discussions on the Internet, but also dissatisfaction with the head of department of education in Moscow Olga Larionova, which opposed the show series on TV. On the "School" in life and on screen with Valeria Gai Germanika talked columnist Week "Natalia Kochetkova.

week: The film - in some degree outrageous on your part? Did you expect such a reaction to the picture?
Valeria Gai Germanica: Yes, I was not going to shock anyone. For me, the word "outrageous" does not exist. We just make movies. As for the reaction - it is always adequate to the audience. What the viewer - such a reaction, a film - such a reaction. If they respond, they are adequate. And the fact I was waiting ... Producers warned me that the audience may well respond. But it is not interesting, I'm just doing my job. I've been doing what he likes. I kicks it in, I sit and shoot do not know specifically what is happening.

N: That is, when producers have warned that the rise may cry, you are not confused?
Germanicus: And how do I respond? Do I have to foam at the mouth, lying on the floor? I am sincerely worried with those people who worry that it shows on television, share their feelings. But as an artist, as though it may sound snobbish, I can not shoot differently.
N: This leads to compare the "School" with "All will die, but I'll stay ...
Germanicus: I think that we should not compare these two films - they are different projects. The films are told different stories. No matter, the young heroes in them or not: I just made about people, not just about teenagers. About human relations. All are the same, all the same problems. The main form, not content.
N: The problems of adolescents in the "School" is not merely an adolescent, and universal?
Germanicus: They are, of course, universal, if only because that teenagers might not be so hostile to each other, if they had not formed the environment that surrounds them. Kids are aggressive only when aggressive adults.
N: Adults have these children unmotivated evil?
Germanicus: I'm not saying that somebody somebody did ... This is generally your subjective notions of good and evil. If we consider the Old Testament issues, we have shifted vectors and the concept of good and evil, retribution and justice. When you say angry children - it is subjective.
N: Let's look at a specific episode from the movie: Grandma asks her granddaughter to stay with his grandfather in the hospital, because it is transferred from the intensive care ward. Child in response to rude ... Why?
Germanicus: Because such children and should be. Because children are there. Parents do not recognize their children, but children do not have time myself otrefleksirovat at this age and also a not very recognized. As time passes, they will admit: yes, we were. I know these children, I was not in the same school, worked with troubled teens. No matter what the family of a teenager - they all occur in the same court, involved the same, they drink the same cocktails. Adolescent form the social environment, their genes and upbringing, which he was given the parents. Think about it you, because you're older. Because only in the Communion, the right conversation can affect the person who is in a period of formation.
N: We can assume that after a while you will be of interest not teenagers, and elderly people - this is also the age of insecurity?
Germanicus: I have a very wide range and great potential. I'm a good director, believe me, please. When I have the opportunity to shoot another movie, I'm sure those loans. I can promise that will no longer be made about teenagers. I am interested in people. General.

Valeria Gai Germanica: "I do not even know what EGE"

15/01/201015: 20

- Valeriya, as the idea to make TV series "School"?

- This summer I received a call general manager of Channel Konstantin Ernst, called me to meet you. He said that he admired my creativity, my movies. He said that he wants me he made such a project about school, about children and about the problem. I had no choice, so I agreed.

- Do not have a choice?

Читать дальше... 

- Yes. I really wanted to make movies. I have a half years doing nothing, had to sit without work. And the fact that they offered me, I really liked it.

- Customers episodes have some influence on the script and the idea of the project?

- No, they want to retain authorship. To myself all up and made me very important that freedom. I was not pressured, do not ask for something to cut, change or overwrite. I can do whatever they want. When the hype, they called me, told me to not worry and do its work.

- How do you feel about the scandal, which unfolded around your series?

- Today is the fourth day went, as the country with his knees raised, and I have this question I try not to answer. To be honest, to how to react to the episode, viewers and critics, I am well. I have my senior friends have always said that art should appall or entertain. Now the fourth day of fun the whole country.

- When the shooting started "School", whether you have confidence in that episode, "shoot"?

- The success of the picture depends on your relationship with reality. When you filming consciously and with love, the movie itself goes to your hands, everything will take of itself. The same drama of life. You can only competently formulate the space inside the frame. The main thing - an interest in his characters, really love them and understand. Cinema happens when you are not with hubris, not proud to come up to the characters, and when to treat them like to himself. This is my dialogue with the world.

- What happens in the filming process? Is there any tension on the court?

- I shoot 15 scenes a day from different series, in this mode we have the fourth month. Shooting of "School" began in September. Today was such a case, we simply have press climb into all the cracks, we also revealed the scene. And the man from the newspaper saw as we kissed each other with the director, that we are not driven out. He was shocked that we have with her tea drinking and cake eating. In school, where the shooting until all is quiet: we have real children are removed in the crowd, they help us. We understand that at any moment we may decline to the territory. But so far nothing is happening.

- Cake for school director - is the only gift?

- You know, now so much false information has leaked everywhere. They say that we bought them new computers, and the Director of the machine - RAV4. No it was not like that.

- What do you think I need a sufficiently rigid, radical series?

- It's not for me to decide, or should not. This is a question for the producers to the series. I was invited to work on this project. Probably, if I chose, it is so, and must be serial.

- Valeriya, who you were filming episodes: for students or parents? Who should see the "School"?

- For me, it is important to "school" looked at my family: relatives, colleagues, friends and teachers. They are all very proud of me. So priyatnenko.

- Linked with a movie year teacher?

- Actually, I'm talking about Year of the teachers found out only yesterday.

- Do you have a view on what is now happening with Russia's education?

- I do not know what is happening with education in Russia. I even have no idea what the EGE and how it happens. But what is said on television in connection with our project on education reform ... I think it is not in the reforms, but in human relations. It is necessary to restore the dialogue between people.

- School, where you studied, similar to a school that you show in the series?

- I studied in two different places: first in high school, then on his own initiative, passed in a normal school. I remember the feeling of panic when the director walked down the corridor. It was very frightening. I am at this moment just stuck to her wall. I still do not understand why the teacher put us two. My friends parents thrashed for these two. In those years I lived in an atmosphere of terror and fear.

- This is reflected in the series?

- I do not want to make things look as if I took out my evil. I do not act out on anyone. I do not show that the teacher-bitch. In the series, in fact, very melancholic attitude among teachers. Only, perhaps, they say, is not the language spoken in the offices of other schools.

The Commissioner for Children's Rights in Moscow and Yevgeny Bunimovich teacher believes that the biggest problem of the "School" lies in the fact that adolescents may perceive displayed on the show smoking, drinking alcohol and rudeness to teachers as "guide on marginal behavior."

The game of nerves

Psychologists believe that the series may affect the psyche of children and adolescents, and prosecutors must carefully analyze its contents. Examples of negative characters for immature teenage mind are more important than the examples of positive and mature people, says the chief child psychiatrist MHSD, deputy director of the SSC for Social and Forensic Psychiatry named after the Serbian Eugene Makushkin.

"If the prosecutor is concerned about the moral and ethical image of the younger generation, then, respectively, of such episodes in a civilized state can be regarded as harmful to national security", - he said.

Children's Ombudsman considers that the movie will make Russian students to look at ourselves from the outside.

"There is no question for adult people, especially officials from the education and children: to what extent they agreed with this series or do not agree ... We have an open society, open to debate, to discuss any problems," - said Astakhov.

The school number 945, where the shooting the series, Tatiana Rybin said in turn that the students have already applied to it to stop shooting this series in the walls of the school.

How to tell real students, between the orders in their school and described in the film gritty Russian schoolchildren with aerial, with clashes and fights, there are many differences, yet this does not prevent them from moonlighting as a film set in the crowd.

shooting and learning processes

This Rybin explained that her school was chosen for filming because of the architecture and a convenient location in relation to the metro.

How wrote on his page in the "living magazine" blogger ottenki-serogo, who visited in December to shoot a new series, "filmmakers took the entire first floor - a shortage of pupils and the school could afford to let the learning process a film crew."

Nevertheless, the recognized teachers, shooting the series "School" complicate their work. Teachers complain about the noise during the lesson: "We are stopping them, and they hinder us. During the lesson, and hear the" camera ", and" motor ". And for us to hush, that we were not running, no noise, not wire trampled "- told RIA Novosti teacher junior high school number 945 Svetlana Shatilova.

In addition, for the sake of participation in the crowd of school children escape from school. According to the teachers, the fee for one day of shooting - 500 rubles. "When we noticed that the students skip class for the sake of shooting, school officials forbade them to participate in the crowd" - explained the teacher.

According to head of security the school number 945, the filming process, so as not to interfere with school, goes to the summer holidays, Saturday and Sunday. As reported in its photo essay, LJ-blogger ottenki-serogo, school lessons are being filmed and in the evenings. In order to have everything as day, a few classes have a special ceiling, and on white paper pasted over the windows from the outside shines "cold light".

And what a source told RIA Novosti in the school, the first thing that has changed in the school with the start of filming - is the wall that was repainted in darker colors.

Morals in both schools

Teachers note that the series premiere brought in teachers only negative emotions. A day earlier, director of the school number 945 Tatiana Rybin told RIA Novosti that the pupils of its schools are asked to stop shooting new episodes in the building of their school. But, according to the pupils themselves, the first series, where they waited for several months, they really liked. At the same time in their school scandal about filming there and do their school on the serial "School" does not like.

"We do not have any scandal. When a shot, just a bit annoyed - that's all. And what to us is the connection between episodes? In our school, even with her hair can not go," - said one of the girls school, registered social network "In contact".

The school does not fear that parents whose children study at school number 945, after the series can transfer them to other schools. "I do not fear that parents will pick their children from this school, because they know what school here. Yes, my child would try to be somewhere on school grounds or anywhere for three yards from the school corridor, behind a fence school, have a smoke ! Many things can not be in my school from this film "- it is indignant.

The parents, with whom managed to talk RIA Novosti, refer to the television series is totally indifferent. "I'm not very aware of what this film. Maybe teenagers and need a serial," - said the mother of one of the pupils of school № 945 Ludmila Mezhevova.

Life after the premiere

Now in Moscow school number 945, where they filmed series about teenagers, because of the hype around the tightened security. With the start of shooting guard job significantly more complicated: it has to sort out who enter in school - these students, and who - actors, members of the creative team.

He has a list with the names of people with access to the school. And journalists, who still manages to get to school, the guard must memorize the face and never in the building did not admit.

The series "School" went on the First Channel on January 11, he is broadcast daily, twice a day in prime time. New project Valeria Gai Germanika caused public outcry.

Is it easy to watch "School" Guy Germanika?

13/01/201015: 25

Sergey Varshavchik, a columnist for RIA Novosti.

As Voltaire once wrote, "all genres are good, but boring. And from this point of view of scandal surrounding the new movie of Valeriya Gai Germanicus, the series "School", which first channel started to show on Monday, said that a young director so early - a talented person.

The series barely begun, has already aroused the wrath of a number of metropolitan officials responsible for education and director of the Moscow school, who considered that in the Year of the teachers "such broadcasts on television should not be" that "it is - an absolute Chernukha, Chernukha about teachers." They joined well-known guardians of morality among the State Duma deputies, some of whom demanded to call a plenary meeting of the First Channel, Konstantin Ernst, in order "to hear his explanation and request to stop a demonstration of this movie, if we do not want to get a strong wave of protest and indignation."

Читать дальше... 

We hear even calls to sue the authors of the series and the channel itself, in order to compensate for those nervous "moral damage".

I must say that the best publicity, "the School" would be hard to imagine. Noise, caused public outrage, led many (including me) to pay close attention to this series of ninth-shot in pseudo-style a la "operative imaging." Almost reality show.

That's slightly trembling camera captures how pretentious girl crawls out of my father's Mercedes and defiles to school

under the smiles insolently smoking on the porch of my classmates, now show us the scene where a brand new class, Ilya Epifanov, calms the patient and her mother forbade her to come to the school, so he is in gym class composure says the boys that he was transferred from the fact that from it "flew heifer" ... You say, such schools do not exist? And these students and schoolgirls? Alas, it happens and pohlesche, with teachers, too.

For examples look no further than necessary - the director of the Moscow school number 1213 caught the other day on bribes.

But the anger is understandable and the public: students in the film appear cynical, nervous, angry, but individuals, in contrast to teachers and parents - caricature of the weak and helpless characters, koimi ninth-ordered about, like a mannequins. And given the "magical power" television, the older generation fears that young viewers will adopt a model of behavior seen.

Gaius Germanicus could be called to some extent heir documentary filmmaker Juris Podnieks with his famous movie "Easy to Be Young?" (1986), who became a symbol of the decadent era of change times of socialism. Can draw a parallel with Dinara Asanova who made a lifetime movie about troubled teens.

However, there are certain features.

Valeria - the youngest medalist domestic Cannes Film Festival - the beginning of his creative biography of dokumentalki, taking off at a young age "Sisters" and "girls". Then came "Boys", and then its famed art tape "Everybody dies, but I'll stay" (2008), which brought a considerable harvest of awards at various prestigious festivals.

The main heroine of "Everybody dies" - girlfriend Katya, Vika and Zhanna studying in 9 th grade school in Moscow. Bury the cat, buy cheap drinks after school, dreaming of pairing. Retiring with the lesson of geometry, have vowed not to beat each other guys and be faithful, "while not grow up". Prior to mature remains less than a week - Saturday disco to test the strength of their friendship. As a result, all three heroines get what they wanted - who drink, who lost their virginity.
Sound familiar?

By and large, all kinoraboty Germanika one and the same - the eternal conflict "between fathers and children", where the latter are experiencing perhaps the most difficult time in every man's life, becoming a teenager. When you are no longer a child, but not yet an adult. When the old ends and interests in their place come new. With all the "tinsel" in the form of drinking, discos, infinite TREPOV about male /female, aggressive talk, violent fights, uncomprehending parents, zanudlivyh teachers, smoking behind the school and casual sex in the stairwell.

The only question about the proportions - where the truth ends and life begins "Chernukha"? However, given the specificity of the First Channel, positioning itself as a "people's television", I think that the audience "excesses different" does not show.

The main difference from Germanika Podnieks, Asanova, Priemyhova and other famous domestic filmmakers that developed "youth" theme, in my opinion, that the 25-year-old Valery in his work does not attempt to resolve the conflict of generations, acting spokesman of only one perspective on the world .

As for the hypothetical ban, it only spur interest in the project. What shows an example of infamous reality show "Dom-2" (channel TNT), which in October to address the Presnensky court of Moscow has been forbidden to appear before 23 hours because of "systematic exploitation of interest in sex." And in the end ratings of the program have grown, that once confirms the old rule: forbidden fruit is sweet.
