Painful parenting - Along the Ridge review by CH
Having previously reviewed The Italians (a very skilfully observed Russian film, following the lives of parentless children, seeking some sort of meaning to their lives in a bleak orphanage) the film Libero poses another question……how do children respond when forced to witness the claustrophobia and confusion of a violent and tempestuous marriage. In both films, happiness is only ever an anxious fleeting moment, like a passing shadow. I would pair these two films, The Italians and Libero together as a dark duo of the pains of childhood that both strike and illuminate the tragedy of the human condition.
