What Tench Is About

Released for lack of evidence, Jonathan goes back to his mother, who lives in a small house near the dunes. He wants the past behind him and holds to the rules he has set himself to the letter, and then a young woman moves in next door with her small daughter. Patrice Toye adapted Inge Schilperoord’s novel and does not blur what the subject is, which is the sexual abuse of children. The director has stated her aim plainly: not to excuse anyone, but to make the problem discussable. It premiered at Rotterdam in 2020, and it does not spare the viewer its discomfort.
