PODCAST | Chiara Nicoletti interviews Călin Peter Netzer, director of the film Ana, Mon Amour.

His Child’s Pose won the Golden Bear in 2013 at the Berlinale and after 4 years, Calin Peter Netzer is back in competition at the 67th berlinale to present Ana, Mon Amour based a on a novel . The film explores the limits between love, addiction and codependency through the Toma and Ana’s love story. At first he’s the strongest one and she is the weakest until the situation changes drastically. Ana, Mon Amour moves along past and present of the couple during 7 years of their life together. Netzer reveals his interest for psychiatry and the analyzes the differences between this way of investigating the human brain and the one carried on by religion and the instrument of confession.

Ana, Mon Amour: Toma meets Ana while they are both studying literature at university. Ana has a mild neurotic disorder and suffers from panic attacks. Toma follows her to every dark corner she ends up in, he fights his parents when they reject her, he accepts being a father and marries her, he becomes her babysitter, her driver, her everything. Toma appears to be in control of the couple’s relationship, when in fact he just gravitates around a woman he can not understand, pushing his endurance to the limit, trying to save her.When Ana overcomes her fears and adapts to the outside world, Toma remains alone, trying to put the pieces of the puzzle together, striving to understand the whirlwind that he has gone through.
