Armand

Armand is the feature film debut of Norwegian director and screenwriter Halfdan Ullmann Tøndel (also the grandson of Liv Ullmann and Ingmar Bergman). After an incident between 6-year-old Armand and his best friend Jon, their parents are forced to report to the school authorities. Starring Renate Reinsve (The Worst Person in the World): 'Renate Reinsve is riveting… her best work to date.' - The Wrap

Just before the school holidays start, 6-year-old Armand is said to have displayed inappropriate behavior towards his friend Jon. Armand's mother (Renate Reinsve) and Jon's parents are called to school. No one knows exactly what happened, and together with the school management they try to get to the truth. The tension is palpable and it soon becomes clear how easy it is to manipulate facts. Is it really about the children?

Armand premiered at the Cannes Film Festival in the Un Certain Regard program, where director Halfdan Ullmann Tøndel won the Caméra d'Or for Best Debut.
