SO HAPPY

Joëlle de La Casinière - Michel Bonnemaison
Joëlle de la Casinière herself, barefoot against an abandoned and ravaged metropolitan background, promotes her book ’Absolument nécessaire’ (‘An Emergency Book’) during an interview/happening with a broadcast delay. “Nothing is true, everything is permitted”. In the end the books are covered in graffiti like subway carriages....

MOUNE Ô

Maxime Jean-Baptiste
"I close my eyes. The crowd makes me smile, breaks my body, and that's the end". By presenting the festive events which escorted the projection of the film Jean Galmot aventurier by Alain Maline, where the father's filmmaker played a role, the images of Moune Ô reveal the survival of the colonial inheritance within a Western collective unconscious always marked of stereotypes...

SLEEPLESS NIGHT

Koen Theys - Dirk Paesmans
The video was made during a study tour with the school where Koen Theys and Dirk Paesmans were studying. During the night, they went with a 1000 Watt spot to the dormitory of their fellow students, and filmed their reactions to the light. Afterwards these images were put in relation with a burning cross....
