La Patinoire (1998)
Directed by Jean-Philippe Toussaint
Overview
La Patinoire is about a film director who is shooting a highly symbolic film called ‘Dolores’ at an ice rink. He has hired a Lithuanian ice hockey team with which he is having enormous communication problems. His actors all have inflated egos, his film crew is made up of fools, and there is a politician on his back. But he must finish the film, no matter what, in time for the Venice Film Festival.
