Erityiset on koskettava draama, jossa huumori ja lämpö kietoutuvat yhteen. Elokuvassa seurataan kahta miestä, Brunoa (Vincent Cassel) ja Malikia (Reda Kateb), jotka tekevät väsymättömästi töitä vaikeasti autististen ihmisten ja haastavista oloista tulevien nuorten parissa. Heidän työnsä on ainutlaatuista ja elintärkeää, sillä heidän hoivattavansa ovat ihmisiä, joita muut eivät tunnu ymmärtävän. Elokuva perustuu tositarinaan ja nostaa esiin ystävyyden merkityksen. Sen taustalla ovat ranskalaiset Stephane Benhamou ja Daoud Tatou, joiden omistautuminen ja ystävyys inspiroivat tätä tarinaa. Ohjaajina ovat toimineet Olivier Nakache ja Eric Toledano, samat nimet suositun Koskemattomat-elokuvan takana.

Van Gogh – At Eternity’s Gate is the story of an extraordinary talent who defied the norms of his time. It focuses on the artist’s last years and the productive period he spent in Arles, France. The journey to the beautiful light and colors of the south was tinged by a stormy friendship with Paul Gaugain (Oscar Isaak) – and van Gogh’s own mental breakdown. Ignoring doubters and scoffers, working in modest circumstances, Van Gogh created some of the world’s most beloved works of art. His most important supporter was his younger brother Theo (Rupert Friend), who saw Vincent as an interpreter for future generations. Other roles include e.g. Mads Mikkelsen, Emmanuelle Seigner and Mathieu Amalric. Director Julian Schnabel, known as a painter himself, rejects the typical conventions of a biopic and focuses on depicting the landscape of Van Gogh’s mind. (Source: Finnkino Oy)
