JULIE has a secret
Type: Pedagogical-sports portrait
Director: Leonardo Van Dijl. With Tessa Van Den Broek, Koen de Bouw, Pierre Gervais, Ruth Bacquart, Tijmen Govaverts
Here too he tells of a teenager and his problems. Julie is not accused (as in the miniseries Adolescence who is depopulating on TV), rather it is she who could accuse, But the real problem is not the possible denunciation, rather the anguish that weighs on herthe impossibility (or the inability?) To communicate with an adult, fear, the “blackmail” in which he feels taken.
Julie is a young promise of tennis, but in the club where another young athlete trains has committed suicide and begins to suspect that the coach has some responsibilities. We will never see him, but from his phone calls to Julie (because he trains too) we guess that his behavior with the girls had not been clear.
Tessa Van Den Broeck in the movie “Julie has a secret”
While the protagonist must prepare for the selection on which his career will depend, adults – parents, tennis club managers, teachers – try to understand if the girl has something to say.
Produced by the Dardenne brothers and directed by a newcomer, the film does not seek complaints or unmeralized, He just wants to make us feel the difficulty of a teenager in front of something that risks crushing it and to destroy his desire to live.
For those who want to reflect on the difficulty of growing.
