There’s a line Kira Muratova apparently told Isa Willinger at the start of her career. The gist: „Women make the tougher films.“ No Mercy doesn’t treat that like a motivational poster. It treats it like a challenge.

The movie hops between different directors, including Ana Lily Amirpour and Catherine Breillat, and keeps showing the same uncomfortable pattern. On screen, power is never just „there“. It’s designed. Desire gets framed. Violence gets normalized. And suddenly the word „mercy“ feels like a joke someone tells right before the bill comes due.

It’s not an academic lecture, either. More like an assembly of sharp voices that make you notice what you usually look past. The real question lands hard at the end: where are we, today, with women, men, and power?
----------
Kira Muratovas Satz hängt Isa Willinger wie ein unangenehmer Ohrwurm an der Startlinie: „Frauen machen die härteren Filme.“ Und statt das nett zu behaupten, schaut der Film sich genau an, wie „hart“ auf der Leinwand funktioniert. No Mercy schaltet von Regisseurin zu Regisseurin, unter anderem Ana Lily Amirpour und Catherine Breillat, und legt offen, dass Kamera und Drehbuch nicht nur Gefühle zeigen, sondern Machtverhältnisse. Da geht es nicht um die romantische Vorstellung von Empowerment, sondern um ganz konkrete Mechaniken. Wer hat die Kontrolle. Wer zahlt den Preis. Und warum fühlt sich „Gewalt“ im Film manchmal so glatt an, dass man sie fast überliest.

Der Clou ist die Frage dahinter: Wo stehen wir heute wirklich bei Frauen, Männern und Macht?

Transkript
00:04The women make the harder films in reality.
00:08That said to me the great director Kira Moratova once.
00:12Since then I ask myself, is it true that the films of the directors
00:16are inspired by a special force?
00:22That's an interesting thought.
00:28Maybe because there's so much anger in us,
00:30you know, hey, you know from me.
00:32I wanted to do the fort,
00:34things that...
00:36people...
00:37I'm here.
00:38It's before the house.
00:40I'm wearing this today as a statement.
00:43I'd like to play football,
00:45but it didn't go back then.
00:48I'm here,
00:49I'm here,
00:50I'm here,
00:50I'm here,
00:51I'm here,
00:52I'm here,
00:58I'm here,
00:59I'm here.
01:00I was trying to express the truth of her experience.
01:03Oh, merde.
01:04It's a re-equilibrium,
01:05a little bit,
01:06everything we could see in the film,
01:09and in a way we didn't think about what we did together.
01:18That's to begin a revolution,
01:20we are demanding a climate of reparation.
01:22Hey, you following me?
01:23Don't fucking follow me, okay?
01:25From now on,
01:25I will talk about things that you don't want to hear.
01:42That's how much it can be moved out.
