Director's Statement

I wanted to go beyond the limits of the short film. I was lucky enough to shoot with an impressive cast in a beautiful location, an 18th-century castle. 150 people worked on this movie and made this tale possible to be told.

What’s at the centre of this story is the issue of responsibility facing a tragic event. For you, who’s responsible for what happened? Who’s the ‘good’ guy, who’s the ‘bad’ one? Who’s guilty?

All the movie deals with memory, its structure between reality and imagination allows the audience to follow what the character thinks. At the beginning, he doesn’t know more than us, he doesn’t know where he goes, what he’s getting into. We explore his thoughts and his memories at the same time as him. In other words, he lives the same immersive experience than us.

Divertimento is an experience movie as the story and the atmosphere are like one.
