"Caravan", an interview with director Zuzana Kirchnerova Bénédicte Prot
Zuzana Kirchnerova premiered her poetic and vibrantly sensorial debut, “Caravan“, at the 78th Cannes Film Festival, in the Un Certain Regard sidebar.
We met the Czech director, also a contender for the Caméra d’or, and talked about the physicality of this road movie set in Italy, where a Czech mother and her mentally disabled son have no other choice than to go on the road, as well as her visual approach, the character of Zuza (the third travel companion of Ester and David), and the dichotomy freedom vs. cramped space/situation.
Zuzana Kirchnerova explains that her wish was to shed light on the marginalised life of parents/people who are also caretakers for a family member, and told us about the joys of working with the remarkably expressive young actor who plays David (David Vodstrcil).
“It was really my aim: to be very close to the bodies and to kind of feel the film from the screen, and the visual aspect was also very important for me. I travelled a lot around Italy, taking a lot of photos and trying to catch the atmosphere. I really wanted to have a strong visual element, a poetic one, to counter the heavy subject. The Italian light was crucial, as well as the horizons there, the Italian countryside.”
“Caravan can be expressed through two symbols. One is freedom (we are on the road), but the second is a tiny, tiny space, which is a sort of prison as well.”
“We, as parents of people with mental challenges, we are marginalised because we are usually poor – and that’s true for all family members who are caretakers and get marginalised also because they don’t have money… So I’m really truly happy to be able to give a voice to all those marginalised mothers and fathers who have no voice in our society.”
Ester’s just turned 45 and has nothing in her life except caring for her severely mentally disabled son, David (15). David can’t speak and needs constant attention. Ester loves him deeply, but she’s drained by routine and coping alone. Friends in Italy invite her for a visit, but they find David’s unpredictable behaviour causes problems. They ask them to stay in a caravan in the garden. For Ester, it’s the final straw. She doesn’t want to feel like a burden anymore. When the night comes, she starts the caravan up and takes off. On their life changing journey across Italy and thanks to the people they meet, especially Zuza (29)-their fun loving companion and David’s first love, Ester realizes she can be more than just a mother and can live a different life. At least for a short while.
