Programme
Capharnaum van Nadine Labaki
Twelve-year-old Zain is growing up without any hopes for the future in a crowded, dilapidated apartment in Beirut. After running away from home following a crisis, he finds shelter with an ‘illegal’ Ethiopian who takes him on to look after her baby. An energetic, poignant portrait of the expanding ‘precariat’ in this Lebanese metropolis.

Vox Lux by Brady Corbet
Unconventional, visually spectacular drama about superstar Celeste(Raffey Cassidy ánd Natalie Portman), whose fame is due to a violent incident in high school and her elder sister’s talent. An incisive analysis of the violence and fame that turns people into cynical narcissists.

Coureur by Kenneth Mercken
Critical, semi-autobiographical feature film about professional cycling’s dark underbelly. Flemish up-and-coming talent tries to reach the pinnacle of his sport. It seems impossible without EPO and growth hormones. The focus on doping creates a intoxicating film with cycling as the ultimate drug.
