Stefaan DecostereWhat does one do in a world where it is almost impossible to distinguish between the real and the unreal?

Here man is but an element within its physical surroundings, a sign of life, a bundle of emotions...

Michel BonnemaisonThe actor Enrique Ariman, in a state of ecstasy at the foot of Mount Sinai, raises certain still burning issues, even if, these days, they are acquiring a quaint charm. He is filmed by oscillation, with a small shaking camera, and does not blink once in 40 minutes...
