Vivement ce soir
Jan 01, 1985Dans une grande surface de la capitale belge, son directeur est quelque peu angoissé: en effet, il attend pour le soir même une délégation commerciale russe pour laquelle il devra expliquer le fonctionnement d'une grande surface occidentale. Dès lors, il inspecte les lieux et tente de rectifier les différents problèmes qui se présentent dans son magasin. Il est aussi amoureux et ses émotions ainsi diversifiées, contribuent à sa nervosité. En attente de la fameuse soirée, le film montre différentes mini-aventures et historiettes qui se passent dans le magasin, aussi bien au niveau du comportement des clients que du personnel.

Mes entretiens filmés
Oct 13, 2013This distinctly personal journey into the artistic possibilities of independent film is not to be missed. Jonas Mekas, Jean-Pierre Gorin, Robert Kramer and many other visionaries and mavericks of the silver screen – as well as a book seller, a critic and a psychoanalyst – discuss what cinema has meant to them, what it is and what it could be and, implicitly, how it has changed over the 18 years in which this film was shot. Director Boris Lehman leads the charge, drawing in moments of absurdist humour and inventive camera work; he keeps things raw and spontaneous. His encounters with the now much-missed Jean Rouch and Stephen Dwoskin are particularly touching and stand testament to their personal playfulness and candour. An engaging, absorbing, epic odyssey of a movie.

Grève et pets
Jan 01, 1975« Babylonesque fresque sur «une friponne insurrection dont l’objectif est l’abolition du prolétariat et l’avènement du plaisir généralis». Une séquence, montrant l’empalement du roi Baudouin sur son sabre d’apparat, vaudra à ce brûlot de longs et ubuesques embrouillaminis avec la censure. » Jean-Pierre Bouyxou

Jean-Gina B.
Jan 01, 1984This film is based on the true story of Jean Bella, who served as an officer in the Belgian Marine while being convinced, from an early age, that he was in fact a woman. Director Jean-Pol Ferbus follows Jean Bella and makes him talk about his life, psychological and spiritual experiences and reveals the true poet who remained undisclosed for most of this person's life. The film ultimately isn't about transexuality but about loneliness one can experience when he/she feels very deeply that she/he belongs to the two sexes and this in a deep, almost religious, fashion, to such an extent that sexuality itself is being erased from one's life. Jean-Gina Bella is a woman in the body of a man who bravely lived a life on the sea, eventually fighting the elements, talking to God when lost on the immense solitary ocean. This testimony is a very touching and poetic one.
