Description du film :
The opening scene from the new film of Polish director Jacek Filipiak called Zerwany (Torn) is so bleak in tone and contains such strong imagery – the strongest being a prolonged close-up shot of a boy’s mouth violently stuffed with dumplings made by his foster mother that he has refused to eat – that it functions both as a preview of what is to come as well as a warning: this film is not going to be easy to watch. The forceful imagery will remain throughout the film, though the first half is much weakened by unnecessary scenes set at an orphanage to which the boy is sent by his foster parents. When the boy fails to integrate there, escapes and is dumped by the police in a correctional facility for young delinquents, the film’s story and character study come into clearer focus, though the violence remains.
The boy is called Mateusz and he is played by young thespian Krzysztof Ciupa with an intensity that is unusual for someone of his age. Little Mateusz longs to be with his mother and dreams to be a sports commentator when he grows up; neither of these things seem to in reach however, as he is forced from foster family to orphanage to correctional facility. Life in these places is harsh and the animalistic laws of the jungle rule there: eat or be eaten. There are only a few favours the caretakers can extend and everyone wants not one but all of them.
