FINISSAGE: JEANNE DIELMAN, 23 RUE DU COMMERCE, 1080 BRUXELLES

In her iconic 1975 masterpiece, Chantal Akerman meticulously portrays the feminine alienation of a middle-aged widow – a mother, housewife, and sex worker – played by the feminist actress Delphine Seyrig. The camera patiently follows the rituals of her daily experiences in a minimal and precise manner, highlighting the patterns and textures of ordinary life.
