Film Nedolžne, najnovejša mojstrsko dovršena stvaritev režiserke Anne Fontaine (Coco Chanel, Občudovani), se dogaja leta 1945 na Poljskem. Zgodba temelji na resničnih dogodkih iz časa tik po drugi svetovni vojni. Mathilde, mlado zdravnico iz francoskega Rdečega križa, obupana in prestrašena nuna zaprosi za pomoč pri nujnem primeru. Ko prispeta v samostan, kjer med kamnitimi zidovi odmevajo kriki bolečine, Mathilde osupne ob pogledu na redovnico sredi poroda. Mlada zdravnica spravi otroka na svet, nato pa začne polagoma odkrivati nepopisno nočno moro, ki je samostanu prinesla to gorje. Pod bremenom krivde in sramu nekatere nune izkusijo krizo vere, ne le v popuščanju predanosti Bogu, temveč tudi v krhanju stroge hierarhije in zapovedi poslušnosti v samostanu, medtem ko se pobožnost drugih še okrepi. Film s sijajno igralsko zasedbo in prefinjeno fotografijo tankočutno ustvari vzdušje zaupnosti, ki presega tipične vojne drame. Elegantni pristop Fontainove nadomesti nazorne prikaze nasilja s pritajeno, a pretresljivo refleksijo o brutalnosti in hromečem strahu, ki spremljata vojno, ter o trdoživosti, ki pomaga ljudem prebroditi tragedije in ohraniti upanje.

[ENG]

Set in Poland during the winter of 1945, Anne Fontaine’s (Coco Before Chanel, Adore) masterful and accomplished The Innocents is based on actual events in the aftermath of World War II. Mathilde, a young doctor for the French Red Cross, is summoned by a desperate and frightened nun to attend to an emergency. They arrive at the abbey as pained cries echo through the stony walls to find a young sister in labor. Mathilde delivers the baby and is drawn into the private world of the nuns as they confide the indescribable nightmare that led to their predicament. Burdened by guilt and shame, the nuns experience a crisis of faith, not only in their commitment to God, but in the strict hierarchy and demands of obedience of the convent; many have their faith tested while others find theirs strengthened. Anchored by strong performances and graceful cinematography, The Innocents transcends the typical war-torn drama in its intimacy and delicate nuance. Fontaine’s elegant approach eschews graphic depictions of violence for quiet but powerful rumination on the brutality and pervasive fear of war and on the resilience that allows people to emerge from tragedy with a sense of hope.
