ROBERT, JUNE 1996

Manon de Boer
In 1996 Manon de Boer made a series of black-and-white portraits with Super 8 – her first time-based work. She filmed a couple of her friends during moments of intense concentration: Laurien reading a book, Robert playing guitar. These are moments when they forget, just for an instance, what is staring at them; they are unaware of the camera’s presence...

NOCTURNE

Pieter Geenen
On the Italian island of Lampedusa, nighttime has gained a tragic connotation over the past several years. This pile of rocks (less than 20 km2) south of Sicily is Europe’s closest point to North Africa. nocturne (lampedusa - fort europa) captures the island’s schizophrenic, tense nocturnal atmosphere.

SNNORRREBOT

Jan Vromman
A girl and a man are staying in the house. Another man, in some kind of hotel, looks out over the landscape with binoculars. A blind man arrives. They all play music. We visit a local wedding, and again there is music, bagpipes even. The music gives this video its structure, along with the gestures, movements, objects and many, many musical instruments...

YOU WERE AN AMAZEMENT ON THE DAY YOU WERE BORN

Cooper Battersby - Emily Vey Duke
You Were an Amazement on the Day You Were Born is a visually stunning film that follows a woman through a life characterized by damage and loss, but in which she finds humor, love, and joy. With a score that follows the span of Lenore’s life, from her birth in the early 70s to her death in the 2040s, the film takes us from moments of harrowing loss to those of poignancy and dark humor...
