SUPERPOSITION
Filip FrancisThis work is the result of a collaboration between Filip Francis, Luc Deleu and Wout Vercammen. It is an early experiment with image in image, split screen, zoom in, fading, overlaps and other techniques that made the medium video—just out of the cradle in the 1970s—so exciting. The three artists took the camera and set out with great enthusiasm...
REGARDING FAUSTINE

GoryainovaStarting with the premise that any documentary portrayal has something dominating and destructive in its nature, this short essay tackles the relationship between the director and her protagonist, Faustine.

LE ROI N'EST PAS MON COUSIN
Annabelle AventurinThe author of the book Sunny Karukera, Stranded Guadeloupe (1980), Elzea Foule Aventurin engaged, in 2017, in a series of interviews with her granddaughter, the filmmaker Annabelle Aventurin. Together they trace—not without malice—a family history, sailing from one side of the black Atlantic to the other. A history of silences, pride, and revolt....
