La Mif, Glasgow Film Theatre
25 February – 2 March, 2022
Fred Baillif’s award-winning third fiction feature is a bristling, contemporary drama set in a teenage girls’ residential care home in Geneva.
Drawing on his own past experience as a street social worker, Baillif works with an ensemble cast composed of non-professional actors. La Mif follows the fallout of an incident which triggers a chain of over-reactions, resulting in a powerful and emotional examination of the impacts of abuse and the morals and ethics of social care.
A festival favourite, La Mif had its world premiere at the 2021 Berlin Film Festival where it won the Generation 14Plus Grand Prix for best film, followed by further prizes: the Golden Eye in the Focus Competition and the Ecumenical Film Award at Zurich Film Festival.
