Hubert MarécailleDevoid of close friends, a wealthy man, with perverse pleasures and lack of company, invites his aquaintances into his homes and gains the sympathy of his sons, promising an advantageous inheritance that another son refuses, causing irritation and total incomprehension, – irritation also created by his wife, that the man has bought her jewelry with his fortune "acquired honestly", insists du...
POUR LA MÈRE ET LA FILLE
Olivier DekegelAn impressionist elegy about spring, water, light and motherly love, shot from the shoulder on Super 8. Connecting colourful snapshots and intimate scenes the film constitutes a homage to the candour, the cordiality and poetical nature of amateur films, home movies and domestic holiday shoots, which have developed over a couple of decades into conventionalised visual representations of the world...
SAINTS’GAME
Amélie Derlon CordinaThere are periods of strong awareness of the sacred, and periods of desacralization. The film begins with an image, fed by the artist's own obsession with iconic representations, especially those of Christian saints...
AND ALIGN
Peter DownsbroughA fixed long viewpoint of a busy intersection is ultimately interrupted by a 180° travelling. A woman is sauntering along the street lines, almost bored. The passing of time is prominent. An everyday environment is rendered as a modernist architectonical environment; order and disorder are shown in observation, and dissected...

THE HUNDRED VIDEOS 31. LONELY BOY
Steve ReinkeWhen I was fourteen years old I was a fat kid - I mean, that’s putting it blunt. I was 170 pounds. I was a heavy kid and it didn’t look like I was meant for show business at all. But I had that bubbling inside of me and I wanted to sing. And I did....

THE HUNDRED VIDEOS 52. LOVE LETTER TO DOUG
Steve ReinkeI think it’s true what they say in all those songs: falling in love requires overvaluing the tiny ways in which one individual varies from another....
DE EZEL VAN BURIDAN
Frank Theys - Bedrich Eisenhoet'Buridan’s Donkey' was created in the minds and the speeches of eighteen boys and girls. The video shows some people who have never met before and, setting out from their own emotions and thoughts, tell each other about their passions. Three images doom out of the chaos: the wood, the church and the factory. The wood represents innocence and obviousness, disturbed by conscience...
