Pål Sletaune - Naboer AKA Next Door (2005)

One of the most talented Scandinavian directors of present, Pål Sletaune returns with his third feature after his award winning feature debut, Budbringeren (1997) and his follow-up Amatørene (2001). Naboer is a film that will be hated or loved, but if you opt for the latter you'll probably be joined by Roman Polanski as Sletaune borrows inspiration from both Rosemary's Baby, Repulsion and The Tenant.

Lars von Trier’s black comedy The Boss of It All (Direktøren for det hele) concerns an IT company owner who — in need of a figurehead to “hide behind” when confronted with employee problems – invented the personage of a CEO during the startup period for his corporation. The scheme worked for a surprisingly long period, but when the time arrives to sell the business, massive problems arise – for the prospective buyers insist on only negotiating with the CEO, in person. Thus, the owner further extends the ruse, by hiring a down-and-out actor to impersonate the chief officer. With Direktøren for det hele, von Trier uses a new means of filmmaking for this film: Automavision, whereby filming is done with an “automatic randomized camera” that selects the shots. It became a means for Von Trier to “clean up” his approach to directorial work and reconnect with his own love of filmmaking. —allmovie guide

This tale is set in Iceland immediately after WW II when the American forces abandoned the island, leaving behind a considerable number of empty bunkers which were immediately appropriated by hundreds of poverty-stricken Icelanders. The film follows the daily exploits of the Tomasson family, who live in the old army barracks at what was once Camp Thule. Gogo is the daughter of Karolina — who had a fling 40 years before, got pregnant and was later married to the kindly Tommi Tomasson who took pity on her. Karolina repaid his kindness with four decades of marital misery. Gogo, who raised three children during her first marriage, marries an American G.I. named Charlie Brown and leaves her children and family to start a new life. Most of the subsequent tale centers on Gogo’s sons Baddi and Danni. Baddi goes to the U.S. with his mother, while quiet and younger Danni remains in Iceland. Baddi soon returns and proves to be a class-A American-style boor. He creates trouble for Danni, who sadly observes his brother’s changes, but says nothing. Baddi makes matters worse when he seduces Hveragerdur, the girl next door whom Danni has secretly loved for ages. Baddi then marries the girl, but it is an unhappy union. After overcoming his grief, Danni becomes a pilot. The story takes a darker turn after Karolina has a disturbing premonition.

It’s the hottest day of the year in Norway, and seven disparate souls are about to cross paths without knowing what fate has in store for them. Frode and Milla are about to become parents, but they are heartbroken to learn that their newborn child will likely not be long for this world. Bobbie-Pop is a fallen pop singer who sees no other escape from his pain than to take his own life. Institutionalized kleptomaniac Leon is determined to seek out and marry Åsa – the woman with who has sworn to marry him within the span of a decade. When Leon’s brother Trygve checks his brother out of the institution under the auspices of celebrating Leon’s birthday, he has no idea that his brother is determined to remain a free man at all costs. The angel who connects all of these unassuming souls is Vidar, Leon’s best friend at the institution, and the man with the power to see things that none of the others can even comprehend. Though Vidar may be able to save all of the others from a grim fate, it remains to be seen if he will be able to save himself when all is said and done. —allmovie guide
