I consider myself lucky having never lived outside of the city. Every time I’m leaving the city by train or by car I pass these small new towns, devoid of any kind of unique identity and with every house looking exactly like the next one. It gets to me in a special way, making me feel depressed instantly and wondering how anybody could live there voluntarily. Alex van Warmerdam, one of the most exciting filmmakers from the Netherlands, has the same feeling as me, as far as I can tell after watching De Noorderlingen (English title: The Northerners), a surrealistic black comedy set in one of these non-towns.

1960. Young Thomas (Leonard Lucieer) lives with his father Jacob (Jack Wouterse) and his mother Martha (Annet Malherbe) in a decrepit housing development area. There should have been 2.000 houses built by now, but there are only a dozen or so. The few people that do live there are quite eccentric, religious, sex-crazy and/or reading other people’s mail. Jacob is horny and wants to have sex with Martha as much as possible, but Martha is drawing into sainthood.

A promise unfulfilled, lives as bleak and weird as you can imagine. Van Warmerdam presents us with these strange characters in this surrealistic setting, using it to its full advantage to bring his point across. Themes of sexual frustration, religion, intolerance, the occult and most prominently narrow minded insularity in towns like these are handled by the director with his typical absurdist sense of humour, but always with a tragic undertone. This is not a film for everybody to enjoy, but I sure did like it.

The Northerners

The Northerners

During the summer of 1960, the idiosyncratic residents of a one-street Dutch suburb collide in intertwining stories of desire and frustration.

Very good early movie from Alex van Warmerdam. There's some dark humour, and the settings are very well composed, so at times the viewer almost forgets how serious the topics actually are.

The stories here are much more serious and more "real", the film still reminded me a little of Jean-Pierre Jeunet Delicatessen. Probably because of the butcher.
