Do you agree?<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify; margin-top:0; margin-bottom:0\">&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify; margin-top:0; margin-bottom:0\"><span style=\"font-size: 9pt; font-family: Arial;\">Alex Stockman: I wouldn\u2019t call \u201cRepulsion\u201d a direct source of inspiration for \u201cPulsar\u201d although it sure is one of the movies that has left a mark on me. Actually quite some people link it to the atmosphere of that movie. During one of the test screenings, someone even suggested to baptise the film \u201cre:Pulsar\u201d. Speaking of Polanski, there\u2019s definitely also a touch of \u201cLe Locataire\u201d (\u201cThe Tenant\u201d, 1976) in the house. The appartment building where we shot the movie has this same kind of cour int\u00e9rieur through which the appartements are visually and acoustically connected, making it very easy to keep on eye on the neighbours. The poor acoustic isolation of these old world appartments can create a weird, oppressive atmosphere, particularly at night. Paul Simon has written a great song about this phenomenon : \u201cOne Man\u2019s Ceiling Is Another Man\u2019s Floor\u201d.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify; margin-top:0; margin-bottom:0\">&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify; margin-top:0; margin-bottom:0\"><span style=\"font-size: 9pt; font-family: Arial;\"><strong>Roberto Rippa: This is your second full-feature film in ten years after \u201cVerboden te zuchten\u201d (\u201cI Know I\u2019ll See Your Face Again\u201d, 2000).

But I\u2019d better be ok with that and not wonder where all of those marvelous images are hiding, because I feel the monster of melancholia breathing down my neck. I consider every movie to be a miracle, so being part of a couple of miracles in one lifetime is just fine with me.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify; margin-top:0; margin-bottom:0\">&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify; margin-top:0; margin-bottom:0\"><span style=\"font-size: 9pt; font-family: Arial;\"><strong>Roberto Rippa: Where did the idea for the film come from? And how did you work on the screenplay for a such complicate film, where there\u2019s an increasing anxiety and the enemy is an invisibile one?<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify; margin-top:0; margin-bottom:0\">&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify; margin-top:0; margin-bottom:0\"><span style=\"font-size: 9pt; font-family: Arial;\">Alex Stockman: On the internet I came across a publicity for WiFi blocking paint, only available in grey, with the fabulous slogan \u201cBuild Your Own Electromagnetic Fortress\u201d. It struck me as a kind of hilarious paradox: while the world is being transformed in one huge hotspot, allowing us to stay within reach at any time, they\u2019re starting to sell us stuff to block out high frequency radio signals, in order to keep freeloaders, thieves and spies at a distance. It instantly sparked off my imagination, and quickly let to this story about a guy who gets obsessed with an invisible intruder\u2026 The screenplay just developped itself pretty quickly. \u201cPulsar\u201d is a movie that I didn\u2019t see coming. All of a sudden I was right in the middle of it.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify; margin-top:0; margin-bottom:0\">&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify; margin-top:0; margin-bottom:0\"><span style=\"font-size: 9pt; font-family: Arial;\"><strong>Roberto Rippa: How did you work with your actors, especially the very effective Matthias Schoenaerts?<br \/>\n<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify; margin-top:0; margin-bottom:0\">&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify; margin-top:0; margin-bottom:0\"><span style=\"font-size: 9pt; font-family: Arial;\">Alex Stockman: Choosing the right actors and the right clothes for them is really the biggest part of the work. Usually I don\u2019t rehearse that much. I need the magic of the set and the presence of the camera to make it happen. As to Matthias, he\u2019s a natural cinema actor. He has this intriguing mix of restlessness and imperturbality about him. Working with him is rather easy. He trusts in the ability of the camera and the film stock to pick up and magnify significant details. He\u2019s the son of a classical, very respected theatre actor, Julien Schoenaerts. Maybe that\u2019s one of the reasons why he\u2019ll never overdo things.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify; margin-top:0; margin-bottom:0\">&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify; margin-top:0; margin-bottom:0\"><span style=\"font-size: 9pt; font-family: Arial;\"><strong>Roberto Rippa: \u201cPulsar\u201d tells a story about modern anxieties: until a few years ago we just had phones, answering machines and letters that took days to arrive. According to you are the new techonologies controlling us or we are still controlling them? And are they affecting our personal relationships?<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify; margin-top:0; margin-bottom:0\">&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify; margin-top:0; margin-bottom:0\"><span style=\"font-size: 9pt; font-family: Arial;\">Alex Stockman: Sometimes I dream of travelling back in time and meeting the 10 year old me. I would show him my cellphone, a tiny clamshell model. I bet he wouldn\u2019t have a clue what kind of object he\u2019d have in his hands. A Matchbox spacecraft?! I\u2019d love to see his face when I tell him it\u2019s a telephone that also can make photos and record small films. Nowadays kids can\u2019t imagine how the hell we were able to survive without cellphones. The film reflects my amazement at the rapidity with which communication technology evolves and the way it is dominating our lives. Behind this promise of making life simplier, bringing us closer together, giving us easy access to information a different, darker picture is appearing. Vital information can be hacked, your private life intruded and exposed. All these promising devices risk to make us more impatient, lonely, vulnerable and suspicious. By means of poetic antidote I smuggled a whole range of vintage, analogue information carriers in the movie, such as Polaro\u00efd-pictures, vinyl records, cord phones, super 8 movies\u2026<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify; margin-top:0; margin-bottom:0\">&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify; margin-top:0; margin-bottom:0\"><span style=\"font-size: 9pt; font-family: Arial;\"><strong>Roberto Rippa: You filmed \u201cPulsar\u201d in 35mm. Why this choice as most directors chose Digital to be able to work on low budgets?<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify; margin-top:0; margin-bottom:0\">&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify; margin-top:0; margin-bottom:0\"><span style=\"font-size: 9pt; font-family: Arial;\">Alex Stockman: In \u201cPulsar\u201d the devil seems to hide in digital spheres, so it just felt right to capture Sam\u2019s anxieties on 35 mm. Celluloid to me remains a mysterious, gorgeous image carrier. It\u2019s depth of field, the way it captures the light and the shadows and the grain have always enchanted me. So I\u2019m in no particular hurry to help burying such a superb technology. But it takes some more time to raise the budget indeed, so that\u2019s a price you have to pay.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify; margin-top:0; margin-bottom:0\">&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify; margin-top:0; margin-bottom:0\"><span style=\"font-size: 9pt; font-family: Arial;\"><strong>Roberto Rippa: In the film you can always feel the sense of time and space, and they both contribute to raise a sense of menace and anxiety in the audience. How did you work with sound designer Senjan Jansen and composer Guy Van Nueten?<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify; margin-top:0; margin-bottom:0\">&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify; margin-top:0; margin-bottom:0\"><span style=\"font-size: 9pt; font-family: Arial;\">Alex Stockman: From the beginning \u201cPulsar\u201d was conceived as a sound driven film. The different sound elements cooperate to draw you into Samuel\u2019s restless state of mind. Just like Samuel, you become gradually more receptive to acoustic impulses, which can be loaded with menace but also with the promise of some kind of magic that might be about to happen. With Senjan, we worked a lot on finding the accurate sound for the voice mail messages, warning messages, hard disk noises and frequencies conjuring up electromagnetic waves. As I\u2019m allergic to sound effects, we tried to blend the different hybrid sound elements into one naturalistic, true to life soundscape. With composer Guy Van Nueten, we took the time we needed to find the right sound, which came from a mix between acoustic and electronic instruments. The tension between the analogue and digital world that\u2019s at the heart of the movie can be felt in the music too.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify; margin-top:0; margin-bottom:0\">&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify; margin-top:0; margin-bottom:0\"><span style=\"font-size: 9pt; font-family: Arial;\"><strong>Roberto Rippa: Your film builds a very precise atmosphere. Editing it must have been a tough process. Did you work on it with editor Nico Leunen?<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify; margin-top:0; margin-bottom:0\">&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify; margin-top:0; margin-bottom:0\"><span style=\"font-size: 9pt; font-family: Arial;\">Alex Stockman: Editing is a long process indeed, but also a fascinating one. I had worked before with Nico Leunen on my short \u201cEva reste au placard les pleine lune\u201d and felt completely in tune with him. He is a very musical editor, which to me is an essential quality. He has a good eye and ear for the internal rhythm of each sequence. We also share the same sense of humour, which makes it easier to explore the material over a longer period of time and kill some darlings along the road.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify; margin-top:0; margin-bottom:0\">&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify; margin-top:0; margin-bottom:0\"><span style=\"font-size: 9pt; font-family: Arial;\"><strong>Roberto Rippa: The film was produced by Corridor Films, a company owned by you and Kaat Camerlynk. How is it working as director and producer at the same time?<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify; margin-top:0; margin-bottom:0\">&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify; margin-top:0; margin-bottom:0\"><span style=\"font-size: 9pt; font-family: Arial;\">Alex Stockman: It gives me a great deal of artistic freedom. But at times it can get tricky and complex. In the heat of the moment I tend to have an optimistic view on the clock or on the remaining meters of film stock. So it\u2019s important to have good assistants who somehow manage to keep my head in the clouds and my feet on the ground.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify; margin-top:0; margin-bottom:0\">&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify; margin-top:0; margin-bottom:0\"><span style=\"font-size: 9pt; font-family: Arial;\"><strong>Roberto Rippa: Can you tell me something about your work as a producer ?<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify; margin-top:0; margin-bottom:0\">&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify; margin-top:0; margin-bottom:0\"><span style=\"font-size: 9pt; font-family: Arial;\">Alex Stockman: Accompanying directors such as Tom Barman and Nicolas Bruyelle taking their first steps was a stimulating experience. It\u2019s good to shift the perspective from time to time, to live the birth of a movie from a different angle. But at the moment I feel the need to focus on developping my own projects. We\u2019ll see what the future will bring.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify; margin-top:0; margin-bottom:0\">&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify; margin-top:0; margin-bottom:0\"><span style=\"font-size: 9pt; font-family: Arial;\"><strong>Roberto Rippa: \u201cPulsar\u201d already has a distribution for Belgium.

A dire il vero, alcune persone lo collegano all\u2019atmosfera di quel film. Nel corso di una proiezione di test, qualcuno ha persino suggerito di battezzare il film \u201cre:Pulsar\u201d. Parlando di Polanski, nella casa di \u201cPulsar\u201d c\u2019\u00e8 sicuramente anche un tocco di \u201cLe locatarie\u201d (\u201cL\u2019inquilino del terzo piano\u201d, 1976). Il palazzo di appartamenti in cui abbiamo girato ha lo stesso tipo di corte interna attraverso la quale gli appartamenti sono connessi a livello visivo e acustico, cosa che rende molto facile tenere d\u2019occhio i vicini. Lo scarso isolamento di questi vecchi appartamenti possono creare un\u2019atmosfera strana, oppressiva, in particolar modo di notte. Paul Simon ha scritto una bellissima canzone su questo fenomeno: \u201cOne Man\u2019s Ceiling Is Another Man\u2019s Floor\u201d (\u201cIl soffitto di un uomo \u00e8 il pavimento di un altro uomo\u201d).<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify; margin-top:0; margin-bottom:0\">&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify; margin-top:0; margin-bottom:0\"><span style=\"font-size: 9pt; font-family: Arial;\"><strong>Roberto Rippa: Questo \u00e8 il tuo secondo lungometraggio in dieci anni, dopo \u201cVerboden te zuchten\u201d del 2000.

Ma devo essere in pace con questo e non pensare a dove si stiano nascondendo tutte quelle meravigliose immagini perch\u00e9 sento il mostro della malinconia soffiarmi sul collo. Considero ogni film un miracolo, quindi essere parte di due miracoli in una vita va benissimo per me.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify; margin-top:0; margin-bottom:0\">&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify; margin-top:0; margin-bottom:0\"><span style=\"font-size: 9pt; font-family: Arial;\"><strong>Roberto Rippa: Da dove nasce lo spunto per il film?

Mi ha colpito come un esilarante paradosso: mentre il mondo si sta trasformando in un enorme hotspot che ci permette di essere raggiungibili in ogni momento, stanno iniziando a venderci cose che bloccano i segnali radio in alta frequenza per permetterci di tenere a distanza ladri, spie e persone che approfittano della nostra connessione. Ha immediatamente scatenato la mia immaginazione e mi ha portato rapidamente alla storia di questo ragazzo che viene preso dall\u2019ossessione per un invasore invisibile.<br \/>\nLa sceneggiatura si \u00e8 sviluppata piuttosto rapidamente. \u201cPulsar\u201d \u00e8 un film che non ho visto arrivare in me, mi ci sono trovato improvvisamente in mezzo.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify; margin-top:0; margin-bottom:0\">&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify; margin-top:0; margin-bottom:0\"><span style=\"font-size: 9pt; font-family: Arial;\"><strong>Roberto Rippa: Come hai lavorato con gli attori, in particolar modo con l\u2019efficace Matthias Schoenaerts?<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify; margin-top:0; margin-bottom:0\">&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify; margin-top:0; margin-bottom:0\"><span style=\"font-size: 9pt; font-family: Arial;\">Alex Stockman: Scegliere gli attori giusti, e i giusti abiti per loro, \u00e8 davvero la grande parte del lavoro. Abitualmente non provo cos\u00ec tanto, ho bisogno della magia del set e della presenza della camera per farla succedere. Per quanto riguarda Matthias, \u00e8 un attore naturale di cinema. Possiede questo intrigante mix di inquietudine e imperturbabilit\u00e0. Lavorare con lui \u00e8 piuttosto semplice. Ha fiducia nella capacit\u00e0 della camera di cogliere e magnificare i dettagli significativi. \u00c8 figlio di un attore di teatro classico e molto rispettato, Julien Schoenaerts. Forse questa \u00e8 una tra le ragioni per cui non straf\u00e0 mai.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify; margin-top:0; margin-bottom:0\">&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify; margin-top:0; margin-bottom:0\"><span style=\"font-size: 9pt; font-family: Arial;\"><strong>Roberto Rippa: \u201cPulsar\u201d racconta una storia che parla di ansiet\u00e0 moderne. Fino a pochi anni fa, avevamo solo telefoni, segreterie telefoniche, lettere che prendevano giorni per arrivare. Secondo te, sono le nuove tecnologie a controllare noi o siamo ancora in grado di controllarle? E stanno condizionando le nostre relazioni personali?<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify; margin-top:0; margin-bottom:0\">&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify; margin-top:0; margin-bottom:0\"><span style=\"font-size: 9pt; font-family: Arial;\">Alex Stockman: Talvolta sogno di viaggiare a ritroso nel tempo e incontrare me stesso a dieci anni. Gli mostrerei il mio telefono cellulare, un modello minuscolo. Scommetto che non avrebbe alcuna idea di che oggetto avrebbe tra le mani: un\u2019astronave fatta con una scatola di fiammiferi? Mi piacerebbe vedere la sua faccia quando gli direi che si tratta di un telefono che fa fotografie e pu\u00f2 registrare brevi video. Al giorno d\u2019oggi i bambini non riescono ad immaginare come abbiamo potuto sopravvivere senza telefoni cellulari. Il film riflette il mio stupore nei confronti della rapidit\u00e0 con cui la tecnologia della comunicazione si evolve e per il modo in cui sta dominando le nostre vite. Dietro alla promessa di rendere le nostre vite pi\u00f9 semplici, avvicinandoci, dandoci accesso facile alle informazioni, si sta profilando un\u2019immagine pi\u00f9 oscura.<br \/>\nLe informazioni vitali possono essere intercettate, la tua vita privata invasa ed esposta. Tutti questi promettenti aggeggi rischiano di fare di noi esseri pi\u00f9 impazienti, soli, vulnerabili e sospettosi. Ho introdotto nel film, come per un antidoto poetico, una serie supporti analogici come fotografie Polaroid, dischi in vinile, telefoni con il filo, filmini in super 8\u2026<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify; margin-top:0; margin-bottom:0\">&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify; margin-top:0; margin-bottom:0\"><span style=\"font-size: 9pt; font-family: Arial;\"><strong>Roberto Rippa: Hai girato il film in pellicola.

La celluloide rimane per me un portatore di immagini misterioso e meraviglioso. Si tratta di profondit\u00e0 di campo, del modo in cui cattura luci ed ombre. Mi ha sempre incantato. Quindi non avverto la fretta di seppellire una tecnologia tanto superba. Per\u00f2 ci vuole pi\u00f9 tempo a raccogliere il denaro necessario, ed \u00e8 un prezzo che va pagato.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify; margin-top:0; margin-bottom:0\">&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify; margin-top:0; margin-bottom:0\"><span style=\"font-size: 9pt; font-family: Arial;\"><strong>Roberto Rippa: Nel film si sente costantemente il senso del tempo e dello spazio ed entrambi contribuiscono a provocare un senso di minaccia e ansia nello spettatore. Come hai lavorato con il sound designer Senjan Jansen e il compositore Guy Van Nueten?<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify; margin-top:0; margin-bottom:0\">&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify; margin-top:0; margin-bottom:0\"><span style=\"font-size: 9pt; font-family: Arial;\">Alex Stockman: Sin dall\u2019inizio, \u201cPulsar\u201d \u00e8 stato concepito come un film condotto dal suono. I diversi elementi sonori concorrono a farti annegare nello stato mentale di Sam. Proprio come Samuel, lo spettatore diventa gradualmente sempre pi\u00f9 ricettivo agli impulsi acustici che possono s\u00ec essere carichi di minaccia ma anche della promessa di qualcosa di magico che potrebbe accadere di l\u00ec a poco.<br \/>\nCon Senjan abbiamo lavorato a lungo nel trovare il suono accurato per i messaggi vocali, i rumori degli hard disk e delle frequenze delle onde elettromagnetiche. Essendo allergico agli effetti sonori, abbiamo tentato di mescolare diversi elementi sonori ibridi in un suono ambientale naturale e reale.<br \/>\nCon il compositore Guy Van Nueten ci siamo presi il tempo di cui avevamo bisogno per trovare il giusto suono, che \u00e8 venuto da una mescolanza di suoni acustici ed elettronici. La tensione tra i mondi analogico e digitale, che \u00e8 il cuore del film, pu\u00f2 essere colta anche nella musica.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify; margin-top:0; margin-bottom:0\">&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify; margin-top:0; margin-bottom:0\"><span style=\"font-size: 9pt; font-family: Arial;\"><strong>Roberto Rippa: Il film costruisce un\u2019atmosfera molto precisa.

Avevo lavorato con Nico Leunen in precedenza, per il mio corto \u201cEva reste au placard les pleine lune\u201d e mi ero trovato completamente in sintonia con lui. \u00c8 un montatore molto musicale, qualit\u00e0 per me essenziale. Ha buoni occhio e orecchio per il ritmo interno di ogni sequenza. Condividiamo anche lo stesso senso dell\u2019umorismo, cosa che rende pi\u00f9 facile l\u2019esplorazione del materiale a lungo termine.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify; margin-top:0; margin-bottom:0\">&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify; margin-top:0; margin-bottom:0\"><span style=\"font-size: 9pt; font-family: Arial;\"><strong>Roberto Rippa: Il film \u00e8 stato prodotto dalla Corridor Films, la compagnia di produzione tua e di Kaat Camerlynk.
