SITUATION (1)

Hans Op de Beeck
A moving camera takes us along an endless row of cash registers in a desolate supermarket. The cashiers are waiting behind their empty desks and it’s quiet as a mouse… The contrast between the inert location on the one side, chaotic and lively in normal circumstances, and the moving camera on the other, makes this absurd sequence into a kind of dream image...

FABLE DE PLAGE OU LA LIBELLULE ET LE REQUIN

Joëlle Tuerlinckx
Example of a “film-récit film d’aventure”. We are shown fragments of the course taken by two objects fabricated on the beach and tied to balloons.

TSUMI (THE MIS-STEP)

Pascal Baes
Experimenting with the use of a stop motion technique that freezes movement through the use of long exposures and slow shutter speed, Baes filmed during three months his intimate family live. A soft-porn autobiographical documentary: the axing of wood, a performance by Baes’ life companion Aï Suzuki, love-making and birth-giving and the philosophy that no pleasure can be without crime....

... BECAUSE SUPERGLUE IS FOREVER!!!

Johan Grimonprez
“Yesterday Salam Khamas, at the age of 93, married Mrs.Um Ahmed, at the tender age of 105, in the town of Basra, Iraq. It was sunny. The newly weds were both found dead in their honeymoon bed this morning. Mrs.Um Ahmed was still wearing her wedding dress...

TELEVESSEL

Joëlle de La Casinière
Televessel is a classified television work (in the sense intended by Georges Perec) and an initial rational attempt at television aesthetics. Based on a typology of ‘trunk-men’ and ‘talking heads’, this praying figure of the small screen has arranged a huge all-musical composition known as an ‘oratorio’ on account of its obvious character of sacred art...
