In this formally inventive historical drama, acclaimed American filmmaker Rob Tregenza explores the moral complexities of World War II and the permutations of history and its representation. Set in occupied Norway, The Fishing Place follows Anna (Ellen Dorrit Petersen), a housekeeper who arrives to work for a German priest in rural Telemark. As the priest grapples with his faith amid the corruption of power, Anna navigates her own secrets through clandestine meetings with a local SS officer. Known for his masterful debut Talking to Strangers (1988)—which caught Jean-Luc Godard’s attention and led to their collaboration on Inside/Out (1997)—Tregenza brings his distinctive visual style to this nuanced exploration of war’s impact. The director, who also served as cinematographer for Béla Tarr’s Werckmeister Harmonies (2000), employs his characteristic philosophical depth to challenge conventional war narratives, crafting both a powerful meditation on human nature and a meta-commentary on cinema itself.
