Chantal Akerman: lost and found / Thu 16.10.2025, 7pm

French and German with English subtitles

Being cold, being hungry, being lost. Walking around night towns, sharing coffee, sharing bread. Running away. Talking existentialism. Eating spaghetti.

Two rare films by one of the pioneers of independent European cinema - known for quietly and authentically portraying queer and female experience - capture the poetic and the quotidian nuances of growing up.

- I’m Hungry, I’m Cold (1984, BE) / 12 min
- Portrait of a Young Girl at the End of the 1960s in Brussels (1994, BE) / 60 min

The screening will include the short film Schneemann (2018, AT) / 20 min by Leni Gruber in dialogue with Akerman’s work.
