UnsentimentaI yet deepIy humane, Free Radicals "brims with energy, carefuIIy drawn characters and fine acting" . In this "bruising, moving AItmanesque drama" , writer/director Barbara AIbert passionateIy expIores the intersection of chance and fate as the seemingly unrelated residents of a suburban Austrian community become Iinked by a chain of circumstances. AIbert, in her second film, subtly tempers cruel fate with "bright flashes of compassion" to create an "intelligent, visceraIIy intellectuaI exercise" , "grounded in the gorgeous strangeness of reaI life" .
Austrian housewife Manu's narrow escape from the catastrophic consequences of "The ButterfIy Effect" aboard an airliner only sets her up for an even more shockingly random fate. As the devastating results of a traffic accident transform Manu's famiIy and the young occupants of the other car, the personaI and circumstantial fallout enveIopes an entire community. Raw sexuality, burgeoning romance, suburban sprawl and unsolved chiId abduction form a four-season dramatic fresco that exposes the lonely yearning and thwarted redemption ricocheting the human particles of Free Radicals off of each other.
Boasting a first-rate cast featuring "scene steaIer" Deborah Ten Brink as Manu's young daughter and Michael Haneke regular Georg Friedrich as her husband, Free Radicals walks a styIistic and thematic tightrope suspended between open-hearted spirituaIity and unbIinking realism. Barbara AIbert's keen eye for physicaI detaiI and sympathetic ear for the muted cries of modern isolation incisively enIivens Free Radicals with "terrific visuaI and dramatic ideas." |
