Blues for stray cats, 4min., France

This animated short film draws on an aesthetic inspired by post-war European cinema and painted illustrations. The visual world is based on a pictorial approach, where each shot is conceived as a living painting, blending visible textures, diffused light.

Directed by Jerry Trieus
Grieving the passing of her mother, lonely disabled Seraphina leaves her shop late one night and discovers that the elevator in this old heritage building has broken down.

Directed by Nicolas Van Achter, Stéphanie Paillet
In this solo from the R&sonances series, we invited Italian dancer and visual artist Francesco Misceo to Belgium, in the heart of Wallonia — one of the earliest and most decisive geographic epicentres of global industrialisation — to improvise around the theme of emptiness in its many dimensions.

WHEN YOU WAKE UP EARLY, 2min., USA

Poetry Movie series. When you wake up early, you notice things that you don’t when the sun is shining on a summer afternoon. You notice the last tiny water droplets falling on your windows from the heavy clouds that darkened the fields below while you were sleeping.
