Skunk (2023) \u2013 Koen Mortier Nederlands:
Rauw en aangrijpend portret van een jongen die opgroeit in een probleemgezin en overgeplaatst wordt naar jeugdzorg.
Wat gebeurt er met je als je dagelijks in elkaar geslagen wordt en opgroeit in een wereld vol geweld en seks? Kun je zo’n verleden ooit afschudden? Dat is de vraag achter Skunk, waarin de 17-jarige Liam in de jeugdzorg belandt. Een film die ‘de rauwe realiteit van de jeugdpsychiatrie ongemakkelijk dichtbij brengt’, aldus De Morgen. Acteur Thibaud Dooms zorgt ervoor dat je de gebutste Liam niet licht meer vergeet.
English:
Director Koen Mortier’s raw film Skunk gives a penetrating look at the impact of childhood traumas on young lives and the issues, but also the hard work in youth psychiatry with limited resources. The film – based on the book by a Flemish youth worker – received rave reviews in Belgium and has already won two awards.
Neglected teenager Liam grows up in a family where drugs and violence play the main role. When his destructive home is exchanged for a juvenile institution, the boy finds solace, but also finds himself in a group of boys, each with their own issues. Liam is sensitive, wary and afraid of being hurt, but damaged to the extent that he also has a dangerous side. Little by little, his companions manage to break him open, but Liam’s past continues to haunt him.
Français:
SKUNK suit Liam, un adolescent négligé qui grandit dans une famille où la drogue et la violence jouent un rôle prépondérant. Son foyer destructeur est bientôt remplacé par une institution pour mineurs qui a aussi ses propres règles et ses propres abus. Même s'il trouve du réconfort auprès de ses surveillants, le passé continue de le hanter...
