Miranda Otto – Actress – The Daughter

FRED’s Matt Micucci interviews actress Miranda Otto, who talks about her work on the film THE DAUGHTER by Simon Stone, closing film of this year’s edition from the Venice Days section of the 72nd Venice Film Festival.

She talks about her role, how her journey to the project began and what attracted her to the character and well as the collaboration with the director Simon Stone, which included lots of rehearsals, some of which took place over Skype. As well as that, she comments on the film’s very different representation of the Australian as well as her relationship with the rest of the cast and voices her admiration for films that leave some grey areas about their genesis and their epilogues, as they allow for a rewarding engagement between the viewer and the film.

THE DAUGHTER: In the last days of a dying logging town, Christian returns to his family home for his father Henry’s wedding to the much younger Anna.

While home, Christian reconnects with his childhood friend Oliver, who has stayed in town working at Henry’s timber mill and is now out of a job. As Christian gets to know Oliver’s wife Charlotte, daughter Hedvig and father Walter, he discovers a secret that could tear Oliver’s family apart. As he tries to right the wrongs of the past, his actions threaten to shatter the lives of those he left behind years before.
