May 13, 2015 Trailer Park

Cannes Trailer Park, part III

by Greg Cwik
Cannes Trailer Park, part III

From the producers of The Dissolve came the classiest trailer park in all the land, a park rife with exciting new films and so, so many languages. But something had survived, so The Dissolve brought you back for a second trip to the trailer park. Now, for the third (and final? who’s to say?) time this year, we present trailers for films premiering at the Cannes Film Festival: Cann3s Trail3r Park 3D.

Valley Of Love

From Guillaume Nicloux (The Kidnapping Of Michael Houellebecq) comes Valley Of Love, starring Gerard Depardieu and Isabelle Huppert as a couple who start receiving letters from their dead son, which is odd because dead people don’t often send letters. The dead son implores them to witness his “return.” The trailer plays the scenario as low-key, not ominous or absurd.

The Shameless

The Shameless is the second film from South-Korean filmmaker Oh Seung-uk, whose debut, Kilimanjaro, came out 15 years ago. The Shameless depicts a crooked cop (Kim Nam-Gil) who befriends, and then falls in love with, a suspect’s mistress (Jeon Do-Yeon), who had previously been having an affair with a mob enforcer (Park Sung-woong). Pretty hardboiled stuff. The film’s alternate title is The Bastard; too bad they didn’t put them together for The Shameless Bastard.

The Chosen Ones

This Mexican-French drama, directed by David Pablos, tells the tale of a boy who seduces a girl in order to tap into the underground world of sex trafficking. The rest is pretty opaque right now. The trailer is brief but creepy, as a trailer about child sex trafficking should be.

Alias Maria

José Luis Rugeles’ drama follows a 13-year-old guerilla soldier, who witnesses the secret birth of the commander’s child. She’s then tasked with delivering the child across the dangerous Columbian jungle. Also, she’s pregnant.

Comoara (The Treasure)

Corneliu Porumboiu, director of When Evening Falls On Bucharest Or Metabolism, is at the helm of this dark comedy. A father finds treasure buried in his backyard, and all the afflictions usually associated with finding buried treasure aptly ensue. The trailer isn’t in English, but it looks pretty interesting.
