THE CURSE

Harald Thys - Jos De Gruyter
In the same minimalist style that would later on characterize 'The Bucket’ (2001) and 'The Spinning Wheel’ (2002), 'The Curse’ tells Maria’s unhappy story. After giving birth to her first child, she has mysteriously lost her husband’s love. The situation is as tragic as absurd, the universe it deals with as grotesque and enigmatic as alienating...

BEWARE PEOPLE

Luc Gobyn
‘Beware People’ is part four of ‘Une Victoire Americaine’. The video shows how the eye of a digital camera tracks the roads for signs of life in a landscape. The running text is derived from the pamphlets, which were dropped from the Afghan skies for the Afghan citizen at the start of the American invasion...

UN PEINTRE SOUS SURVEILLANCE

Boris Lehman
"After many years of friendship I wanted to make another film with Arié Mandelbaum, a sort of portrait of the painter 20 years later. Not to explain the unexplainable, or introduce anything lacking in the first movie, but just return to the central question of the nature of painting, of what a painter is...

Eric Blanckaert - Jackie Claeys - Freddy Coppens - Mark De Geest
This time the programme ‘Ijsbreker’ explores the depths beyond the rather quiet surface of Dutch-language film – from Flanders as well as from the Netherlands...

BROTVERMESSUNG

Wolf Vostell
'Brotvermessung' [The Measuring of the Bread] documents a happening that took place on 15 March 1969 and involved the participation of a random public, which assisted with the measuring of the circumference of the Cologne Opera with 40 French loaves - which turned out to be equivalent with 1,164.5 loaves of 50 cm and weighing 1.5 kilogram. (Berta Sichel)...

THE CORRIDOR

Sarah Vanagt
For 5 days Sarah Vanagt and cinematographer Annemarie Lean-Vercoe followed a donkey during its weekly visits to old people in nursing homes in South-England. From home to home, from room to room. Each time the donkey was welcomed warmly, with greetings, songs, strokes, childhood stories, poems, and laughter...

THEME SONG

Vito Acconci
In ‘Theme Song’ Acconci most effectively plays-on the dynamic field of tension between ‘I’ and ‘you’, between the artist and the viewer. The artist lies on the ground in the living room, in front of the sofa. His face is filmed in close-up...

FROM [ TO ]

Peter Downsbrough
In FROM [ TO ], the image slides past a motorway, past countless trucks, petrol stations and containers. Objects are isolated from their environment and articulated in a repetitive, almost architectural structure....
