OVERVIEW TITLES

VICTORIA (PART OF PAS DE DANSE)

Anne-Mie Van Kerckhoven
Whenever Anne-Mie Van Kerckhoven sees Marc Vanrunxt dance, she feels the urge to show him her interpretation of those moments. Van Kerckhoven: “Filming a dancing subject heightens its visual accessibility. Opposite to the enforced static position of the seated spectator, the point from which the dancer is viewed becomes personal. It becomes possible to observe details accurately...

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.
