Ngesikhathi sesiphepho esinamandla, umshayeli wezimoto ubuyela ekhaya endaweni enekhola eluhlaza okwesibhakabhaka esisedolobheni elikude laseCanada lapho azalelwa khona. Lapho ethembisa ukukhokha isikweletu esidala nomphathi oshayayo ngokumxoxela indaba, izehlakalo zasebusuku zigijimela ngokushesha endabeni emnyama yobunikazi obuyiphutha, ukuwela kabili nodlame olushaqisayo. Ngeke ukholwe ngokwenzeke egumbini le-Oak.

Ngizulazula kwisethi futhi ngokushesha ngishaywa yizinga lemininingwane eselenziwe ekwakhiweni kwebha yedolobha elincane elikhanyayo, elisezingeni eliphansi. Yonke ilebula elenziwe ngobunono, yonke i-tchotchke nodonga ulenga, wonke amasiginesha aphuzwe ngotshwala etafuleni lokugezela, konke kwakha umhlaba we-Oak Room, ocebile ngokuthungwa. 

Isethi ithwala isisindo sayo, ibambe amandla esimo sangaphambilini. Abalingisi uRJ Mitte (Ukuqhekeka BadnoPeter Outerbridge (Isiqhema sokuzibulala) ukuhleka phakathi kokuthatha, ukukhipha amathoni amancane abawabambe izikhathi zangaphambilini. Ekuqaleni, Igumbi le-Oak kwakungumdlalo wasesiteji, futhi uyawuzwa. Inkhulumomphendvulwano iyashelela njengoba abalingisi basebenza ngokunwetshiwe kuthatha.

Uhlobo lwesiteji lwakhonjiswa ku-Toronto Fringe Festival ngo-2013. Umlingisi u-Ari Millen (Ngizothatha Abafileyo Bakho) - obuye abalingise kule filimu - ubecabanga ukuthi kungaba yisinqumo esihle sokuzivumelanisa nesimo, ngakho-ke waletha lo mbhalo kumqondisi uCody Calahan.

"Ungishayele ucingo wathi, ngizokuthumelela umbhalo, kufanele uwufunde." UCalahan uyakhumbula, “Bengithi sengizongena ebhanoyini ngiye e-LA, futhi ubefana nokuthi, ngenzele nje umusa, noma yini okumele uyenze endizeni, ungayenzi. Vele ufunde umbhalo. ” Ngesikhathi indiza imile, lo mbhalo ubusudliwe futhi uhlelo seluqala ukwakhiwa: "Siqale khona futhi eminyakeni emibili edlule, sayithatha kusukela kumdlalo waseshashalazini sayiyisa kwifilimu." 

Enye yezinto zemidlalo yeshashalazi ebigcinwe kulo lonke ukudubula Igumbi le-Oak ukusetshenziswa kwesikhathi eside kuthatha imizuzu engu-15 ngesikhathi esisodwa - ukunika abadlali indawo yokuphefumula. "Senza inqwaba yokuzijwayeza, senza ukuzivivinya kwabasebenzi bamakhamera nakho konke lokho, bese singena ngqo." UCalahan uqaphele, "Uma uvumela umlingisi ukuthi ahambe, futhi ngeke ume futhi uqale," esho ehleka, "Kuhle impela."

Phakathi kwalezi zinto ezinwetshiwe, ngashelela ekusithekeni ukuze ngihlangane noRJ Mitte noPeter Outerbridge ukubheka izimfihlo nezindaba zika Igumbi le-Oak. 

"Ibhalwe kakhulu njengomdlalo, futhi imidlalo idlondlobala kakhulu ngenxa yezizathu eziningi." wachaza uMitte, “Konke esikwenzayo ekuhleleni - ukuzama ukudala amabhithi esiteji - ukwenzela bukhoma. Ngalesi sikhathi, sinesikhathi sokushintsha isigqi. ” Inika abalingisi ithuba lokungena bangene futhi bathole indawo. UMitte wamamatheka, "Uyasithola leso sikhala futhi uhlale kuleso sikhala, futhi ngempela, kuhle impela."

Njengendlela ephilayo yokudubula izigcawu ezinde, idala isethi yezinkinga ezihlukile ku-DP Jeff Maher, kusho uCalahan. “Sibamba izigcawu hhayi ukuthi siphumelele, kulungile, ungabheka ngapha kuphela ngoba ngifuna lokho,” kuchaza yena, “Yikuphi okunzima kakhulu kuJeff ngoba kufanele enze wonke amashothi abe ngobuciko, ahluke futhi ajabulise. ”

"Kuzomele ajwayele," eqhubeka, "Ngakho-ke basebenzisa onodoli abali-12 ubude ukuze uma senza ukuprakthiza, uma ebona umzuzwana ongasebenzi, akwazi ukuwela ngaphesheya." Kuyindlela ephumelelayo yokudubula izigcawu ezimile, futhi ngokuqinisekile kugcina wonke umuntu ezinzwaneni. 

Kepha ubunzima abupheli lapho. "Siyishutha ngokulandelana kwesikhathi, nokuyinto engajwayelekile ukuyenza kumafilimu." U-Outerbridge wabelane, “Udubula konke kungahlelekile uma ushutha amafilimu. Ngakho-ke siyishutha njengomdlalo. ”

“Kuyadlala, kuyisiqephu somlingisi,” eqhubeka, “Kufana nezinsizwa ezimbili ebhawa, zikhuluma amahora amabili. Manje, lokho kukodwa kuyinselele. ” Kepha akuzona nje izinhloko ezimbili ezikhulumayo; kukhona ukusonteka okukhohlisayo okuncane kule ndaba ethile. “Yindaba yomfana ohamba engena endaweni yokucima ukoma, bese exoxela oshibha utshwala indaba ngomfana ohamba engena endaweni yokucima ukoma, oxoxela umphathi wale nsimu ngendaba yomfana ohamba engena endaweni yokucima ukoma.” ehleka u-Outerbridge, "Ekugcineni, ibuyela kubartender wokuqala."

Ngombhalo ominyene onje ongasebenza kuwo, bekubalulekile ukuthi ifilimu ibe nokonga ngenkathi ingayisiki inyama yendaba. “Into enhle ngalo mbhalo ukuthi icebo lisengxoxweni,” kusho uCalahan, “Asinqamuli izinto eziningi zokuxoxa izindaba. Kukulokho abakushoyo; Indaba ikulokho okushiwo inkhulumomphendvulwano. Ngakho-ke lapho usika izingxoxo eziningi, usika indaba eyengeziwe. ”

Ukusika indaba kuyinselele ephelele; ihlanganiswe ngokuqinile ukugcina isiphetho esivusa inkanuko. “Kuzoshiywa kuzethameli - uma ngabe bezinake - ukuzama ukuthola ukuthi kwenzekani,” kuchaza u-Outerbridge, “Ngubani ohlengwayo nokuthi ngubani oziphindiselayo.”

"Kushiyelwe ekuchazeni ukuthi uyafuna noma cha ukukholelwa ukuthi kwenzeke ngandlela thile." kuphawule uMitte, “Ngabe lokhu kungokoqobo? Noma ngabe lokhu kungumbombayi? Unamanga lo mfana? Noma lo mfana ukhuluma iqiniso? Futhi awazi ngempela. Imibuzo eminingi njengoba siphendula, siphakamisa imibuzo eminingi kakhulu. Futhi sibashiya lapho. ”

"Kuya ngohlobo lwesiphetho ocabanga ukuthi luzokwenzeka, kuba yifilimu ehluke ngokuphelele enguqulweni ngayinye." U-Outerbridge uphawule wathi, "Umuntu uqala ngemfihlakalo yokubulala, omunye abe yibhayisikobho ethusayo, noma abe njengendaba yesipoki."

Ihlukile. ” Uvumile uMitte, "Yindaba esematheni, ingenye yombhalo onomusa, futhi okubonayo kuzoba kubi impela."

Ukubona isitho somzimba esinqunyiwe esingagagulwanga igama (azikho izonakalisi lapha), ngiyabona ukuthi okushiwo uMitte kunembile impela. UCalahan, Outerbridge, noMitte bonke babonakala bejabule ngempela ngalomsebenzi, futhi umdlandla wabo wangidonsela ngaphakathi. “Siyifilimu engajwayelekile,” kusho uMitte, “Nginomuzwa wokuthi lokho esinakho kuyibhayisikobho ekhethekile eneqembu elikhetheke kakhulu yabantu abahlale ubuciko babo futhi benamakhono okuwenza ube mkhulu. ”

Igumbi le-Oak igcwele imininingwane enkulu nokunakekelwa. AmaNuances ajwayezelwa ngokucophelela futhi abekwe ngenani elifanele lesimo se-off-the-cuff ukuze uzizwe ungokwemvelo. Njengegumbi le-Oak uqobo, lizwakala likhululekile futhi liyiqiniso, yize kukhona okuthile okucije onqenqemeni.

Manje kwenzakalani egumbini le-Oak? “Benze iphuzu lokuyigcina iyindida ngangokunokwenzeka. Kepha kukhona umlando waso, "kusho u-Outerbridge," [uCalahan] uyakwazi lokho. Umbhali, uPeter Genoway, uyazi ukuthi kuyini lokho. Kodwa abasitshelanga. ”

Badwebe isithombe esiphoqayo - ukuncoma okuhle kuze kube sesikhathini esishubile sendawo abebesebenza kuyo. "Uyazi ukuthi kukhona okubi okuzokwenzeka," kusho uCalahan, "Ulinde nje lowo mzuzu."

Ukuhamba ngisuka kusethi, ngokushesha ngafuna ukwazi okwengeziwe. Kusukela ngendlela ifilimu edutshulwe ngayo kufinyelela esiphethweni esibekiwe nesingacacile sesikripthi, lapho ngicabanga kakhulu ngayo, kulapho ngangifuna ukubona ukuthi kwenzeka kanjani konke. Ezinyangeni kamuva, ngisadinga ukwazi. 

Ngakho-ke uma uthakazeliswa yisithabathaba esiyinkimbinkimbi esinengwegwe enhle nesisindo esinamandla, nakanjani hlola Igumbi le-Oak. Donsela indle, uthathe isiphuzo, uzinze. Izinto sezizothakazelisa.

 

IBreakthrough Entertainment Inc. namaBlack Fawn Films azoletha Igumbi le-Oak emakethe yamafilimu ebonakalayo ezayo yaseCannes ethi “Marche du Film”, lapho ukubukelwa okokuqala kwale filimu kuzokwenzeka ngoLwesibili, Juni 23, 2020. Ungabuka i-trailer entsha nephosta engezansi.
