Jean-Pierre and Luc Dardenne Discuss ‘Young Ahmed' [Interview]

February 25, 2020 Jordan Ruimy

I spoke to the Dardennes about “Young Ahmed,” and in my interview, the filmmakers discussed the origins of their controversial project, the research that went into its creation, and much more. These guys must certainly be one of, if not the most influential European filmmakers of the last 20 years, with their social-realist handheld camera style becoming a sort of Euro-arthouse cliché at this point. And if you believe their last effort, 2016’s “The Unknown Girl,” felt a little off, then you’d probably be happy to know that this year’s “Young Ahmed” is a worthy addition to the brothers’ cinematic oeuvre, tackling a controversial character who feels incredibly relevant to today’s political reality. Again, the Interview.
