LAST WINTER (L'HIVER DERNIER), 2011, Cinéart, 103 min. Dir. John Shank. 27-year-old Johan (Vincent Rottiers) lives alone on his father’s farm in south-central France, tending to the land and shuttling his mentally unstable sister between the countryside and a nearby institution. As winter sets in, Johan becomes increasingly isolated, neglecting his girlfriend and fixating on a wolf that has never been seen but that he is certain is endangering his livestock. John Shank’s elegant drama, hailed by Variety as “stunningly shot, languidly paced… assembled with impressive confidence and featuring quietly powerful performances,” follows the solemn alienation of a man desperately holding on to a bygone rural existence. “A carefully crafted visual poem set on an unforgiving landscape.” - 2011 Toronto International Film Festival. In French with English subtitles. Belgian beer reception following the film.
