What Nothing Personal Is About

Nothing Personal was Urszula Antoniak's directorial debut, following a woman with a deliberately unexplained past who leaves her old life in the Netherlands behind and forms a wary, near wordless bond with an older man living alone in rural Ireland. The film swept the 2009 Locarno Film Festival with six awards, including the Golden Leopard for Best First Feature, Best Actress for Lotte Verbeek, and the FIPRESCI prize; it also won Best Feature and Best Director at that year's Netherlands Film Festival and was nominated for the European Film Academy's Discovery Award. Who it's for: fans of sparse, dialogue light European cinema built on silence and landscape, tracing a cautious bond between two strangers. Who it's not for: viewers wanting a talkative drama that explains its characters' backstories, since the film deliberately withholds information.
