Free Range + Q&a With Director Veiko Õunpuu

13 December

After two brilliant films – Autumn Ball and crazy comedy The Temptation of St. Tony – Estonian filmmaker Veiko Õunpuu gives us Fred, the too-cool-for-school anti-hero of Free Range, an ode to romantic rebellion and nouvelle-vague cool. After criticising Terrence Malick’s Tree of Life for being ‘faggoty’, Fred loses his job writing movie reviews. And Fred, who claims to be a writer, seizes the opportunity to expand his drinking habits, much to the chagrin of his girlfriend. Õunpuu shot his film on delicious 16mm film stock, the terrific soundtrack featuring the likes of Scott Walker and Joan Baez adding to its charm.
