German Films: Film Info: MEIN BRUDER ROBERTLast autumn was very busy for director Philip Gröning: apart from presenting his latest feature THE POLICE OFFICER'S WIFE in competition in Venice, he was also occupied with the shooting of his next film MY BROTHER ROBERT.“It is very surreal,“ Gröning says about his new project. A cross between a dream, a Western and a poetic lecture on philosophy, with elements from Heimatfilms and even splatter.“Gröning’s screenplay centers on a brother and sister, Robert and Elena, 1. Elena’s final exam in Philosophy.“All of my films have in common that they are concerned, on the one hand, with identity and, on the other hand, with the question of time,“ Gröning explains. In this latest film, both aspects are taken to extremes because the siblings are preparing for a philosophy paper on the subject of ‘What is time?’. At the same time, this weekend will see them both bidding farewell to the childhood they have spent together. Elena will finish school, while Robert will have to stay in the village and repeat a year.“Almost all of the film was shot on an isolated elevated plain in Baden- Württemberg where the main location of a petrol station with its forecourt and tarmacked access roads was specially constructed for the film. Childhood scenes where shot in North Rhine- Westphalia, as well as the parents’ home and school scenes.“Although you don’t necessarily notice it in my films, I always keep a close check on locations,“ Gröning says. We even rented a vast area of surrounding fields to have control over the colors of what was planted.“A sudden change of weather and light could play havoc with Gröning’s plans since practically all of the petrol station was made of reflective glass, but he found the challenge stimulating and aesthetically inspirational.
