Films in the programme:
Alberta’s Room, VICTOIRE KARERA KAMPIRE, BE, 2022, 18′, VOEN st EN
Alberta’s Room is a journey into the dreams and nightmares of Alberta Gay. The film looks back at a pop icon’s tragic fate, exploring a female perspective on a tragedy that has been described as a man’s business. Alberta’s Room is an experimental film about absence and grief, straddling the border between documentary and fiction.
Le Temps d’une danse, Misha van der Werf, BE, 2022, 14′, FR
“The time of a dance” is about the day-to-day life of a young, Benin fisherman who is in the transition period between grieving the death of a loved one and accepting it
Klette, Michael Abbay, Belgium, 2022, 17′, VOFR/NL st EN
The 26-year-old Morgane still lives with her mother, has not yet completed her studies, and her love life doesn’t get beyond one-night stands.

Or does she, like so many young adults, struggle with the pursuit of the socially imposed course of life?
Speech for a Melting Statue – Collectif Faire-part, Belgium, Congo, Democratic Republic, 2023, 10′, FR
On the soundtrack, poet Marie Paule Mugeni prepares a speech for the day on which the colonial statue of King Leopold II will be definitively removed. In the images, the massive anti-racist demonstrations of Black Lives Matter that took place in Brussels almost achieve her dream
