Eskil Vogt’s new film The Innocents (De Uskyldige) is one of the projects backed by the Norwegian Film Institute’s latest funding round yesterday.
Vogt writes and directs the story about four children (ages 6 to 12), away from their parents’ attention, whose innocent play turns into something else. The filmmaking team wrote, “Magic and creepy things start happening. The Innocents is a film for adults and a shocking journey in to the secret world of the children.”

Ballet Boys is quite the antithesis of everything we’ve come to expect from a ballet documentary. No one is collapsing under the pressure of competition, mired in self doubt or tormented by the last vestiges of body fat. There is very little real dancing shown and two out of three of its stars are far from convinced they want to be dancers at all. What Kenneth Elvebakk’s affectionate snapshot offers instead is the clumsy tangle of kinetic energy, mockery and generosity unique to teenage friendship, as three boys dedicate their precious after school hours to their love of dance and the tentative promise of a future career.
In poignant contrast with the experience of ballet girls, Syvert, Torgeir and Lucas carry with them the knowledge that boys are special in this rarefied world. They choose it, with little doubt that it will choose them too. They train with...

Kenneth Elvebakk’s visually polished documentary, Ballet Boys, chronicles the experiences of three teenage boys in Norway who have a passion for ballet. The fly-on-the-wall approach takes audiences behind the curtain of what it takes to succeed as a male ballet dancer, but unfortunately bypasses intriguing avenues of enquiry in favour of merely skimming the surface of what would be a rare, inside look at a relatively unseen aspect of the performing arts.
Ballet Boys follows Torgeir, Syvert and Lukas, three high school friends in Norway who also share an extra-curricular passion for ballet. As they approach graduation, they all must consider if ballet is something they want to pursue in the future and if so, how they will manage to balance dancing with their further education. Despite some initial reservations, all three decide that ballet is too much a part of their lives to give up completely, but only...
