Synopsis
Nina leads a structured life, pursuing an ambitious artistic career. When her teenage son Lars has a strange accident at school, she decides to take a break from city life and together they head to their vacation home on the rugged Atlantic coast. Bound in silence, their already brittle relationship is pushed to the edge.
When Nina finds out that her teenage son Lars has been injured in an accident at school, she is faced with a dilemma: Can she leave behind the rehearsals with her orchestra in order to be there completely for him…in a situation that could be a life-changing moment? The decision she makes is a compromise: for five days, she will leave Munich to take Lars on a getaway, to the island in western France where they usually spend their summer vacation — a place full of fond memories and significance to Lars. In winter, however, the island is no vacation paradise, but windy, dark and cold. In the small house on the beach, mother and son are forced to face each other. Thoughts of music haunt Nina, the calls from the mainland worry her. Is she just sabotaging her career, which she has fought so hard for…and for what? Lars withdraws further every day. Misunderstandings multiply, suppositions turn into suspicions: Was Lars a witness to a gruesome crime at school? Did he even participate in it? When a winter storm cuts the last connection to the mainland, a dangerous confrontation ensues.

Projekt Niti besede je film uveljavljene slovenske režiserke, ki nastaja v nemškem okolju. Scenarij je predloga za psihološko dramo z elementi trilerja o Nini, dirigentki in mami problematičnega dvanajstletnega sina, s katerim preživita dramatičen teden na opustelem otoku s prav tako dramatičnim vremenom. Vzdušje igra že v samem scenariju izredno pomembno vlogo in obstaja nevarnost, da bi slikovita otoška pokrajina in poudarjanje vremenskih razmer zadušili intimnost same zgodbe. Tematika o težavnem razmerju med staršem in odraščajočim otrokom je univerzalna in relevantna in tudi pogosto uprizorjena. Zgradba zgodbe je žanrsko klasična, vendar prepletena s sugestivno psihološko vizualizacijo, ki poudarja napetost pripovedi in stopnjuje dramatičnost. Liki so psihološko utemeljeni, njihova dejanja so smiselno vpletena v filmsko pripoved, dialogi so realistični.
