    Synchronisations 2

    In 2021 an improvised live set by Farida Amadou was filmed with a multicam setup of 3 camera’s. Out of this footage, editor-director Rik Chaubet cut a film in which he synchronized his editing-mindset with the mindset of Farida playing, called Synchronisation 1.

    Almost 3 years later, Farida played an improvised duet with her younger self from the first film. While she performed live, her recorded improvisation accompanied her on the screen. This synchronization of sounds and images from the past and the present was once again documented with a similar multicam setup, which results in a sequel called Synchronisation 2.

  • Mouth Of Fire

    Mouth Of Fire

    A film by Giada Ciccheti – in production

    Mouth Of Fire explores volcanoes as geological phenomena and their profound impact on surrounding ecosystems. Rather than presenting a traditional explanatory documentary, the director seeks to create a collage of materials collected from diverse sites, disciplines, and cultures, allowing the volcano to emerge as an archetypal figure. At the heart of the film lies the encounter between humans and volcanoes. The director’s challenge is to develop a cinematic language that enables the volcano and the landscape to speak with their own voice, moving beyond a human-centered perspective.

  • Kapital Europe

    Kapital Europe

    A film by Ben De Raes – 2025 – 90′

    During a hot summer, two migrant workers make their way around Brussels. Niki arrives and looks for work, while Reginald is disillusioned and wants to leave. By focusing the camera on their labour and the everyday, ‘Kapital Europe’ blurs the line between fiction and documentary. The film explores a metropolis of our time, both unique and generic. In that metropolis, the capital of Europe, is haunted by two ghosts, that of Capital, and that of Resistance. But who holds the key?

    ‘Kapital Europe’ is a social realist story as well as a documentary portrait and a visual meditation. Destiny brings people together against the backdrop of an individualised 21st century, where friendship is a possible form of hope.
