}}Interview is a 1979 Canadian short animated documentary film directed by Caroline Leaf and Veronika Soul, produced by David Verrall.[1] It is an autobiographical collaboration: a record of a working day in the lives of two women filmmakers,[3] relating their perceptions of each other through their respective animation techniques, each doing a visual portrait of the other based on characteristic gestures and impressions.[1]

Synopsis

A summary statement from Caroline Leaf's web site reads as follows: "The film is a record of a working day in the lives of two women filmmakers, Caroline Leaf and Veronika Soul. They are seen as friends, as filmmakers, and as individuals whose personalities are contrasted by the things they say of themselves and each other, and by the different animation techniques they use to portray themselves."[4]

Production

The film is a combination of still photographs, live action and animation.[5] Leaf is quoted as saying her own animations of Soul allow for subtle qualities which cannot be achieved by any camera.[6]

Analysis

Giannalberto Bendazzi remarks that Interview describes "how work as a filmmaker influences both women's daily lives and, at the same time, how their daily lives shape their works."[3] María Lorenzo Hernández noted in 2010 that this is in sharp contrast to previous autobiographical animated films by men: unlike the men, Leaf and Soul "delved in the identity of the animatrice by sharing with the audience their creative process, depicted as a personal, almost intimate experience."[7] In 2015, she remarked further that the "mutual interview as modus operandi reinforces" the documentary perspective. Leaf and Soul "deliver a reflection on animation as a medium, and as a mode of living, appearing as independent women who work autonomously – but not

in creative isolation. They establish a dialogue with other artists, other women, legitimating unconventional animation processes. Both have opposite views on animation, yet they can create together."[8]

Jean-François Hamel maintains that what comes across through the film is Leaf's humanism, manifest through her artistry and technique.[9]

Release and reception

Critical response

Hamel writes of Interview that, as is always the case with Leaf's films, the spectator is captivated, entertained and stimulated by a true and sincere artist.[9] Lorenzo Hernández describes the film's final scene, showing Leaf and Soul working together, as "beautiful".[8]

Accolades

Home media and streaming

Interview was included in a 147-minute anthology of films by women animators released on VHS as a set of two videocassettes in the Conoisseur animation series, titled Wayward girls & wicked women, 1991-1992.[11]

A 72-minute box set DVD was released in 2010, titled Caroline Leaf: Out on a Limb - Hand-Crafted Cinema, containing this short and several other works by Leaf.[12]

The short is availble for streaming by subscription from the National Film Board of Canada (CAMPUS).[1]
