Round 9: Tossup 14

This film’s end credits, which are projected underwater, are set to the notes of a music box with a toy ballerina. Near the end of this film, a lighter flame is the only light source for a surreal sequence that depicts the spirit of a woman who had hid her suicide note in the style of a children’s game called “getting warmer.” This film’s director cameos as a cabbie whose passenger, an African-American targeted by a racist children’s song, is named Gbatokai (“guh-BAH-toh-kye”). Anthony Dod (*) Mantle’s handheld (10[1])camerawork for this film was motivated by its director being the first to sign a “vow of chastity” he drafted with a compatriot. A hoax radio segment inspired this film’s inciting incident, in which Christian announces that he and his late twin sister Linda were sexually abused by their father. For 10 points, Thomas Vinterberg launched Dogme 95 with what film about a family party? ■END■ (0[1])
