‘Golden Eighties - Chantal Akerman’

The screening will take place for free in the Banqueting Room (and no longer on the roof of Bozar because of the rain) and is in collaboration with Cinematek and the Chantal Akerman Foundation.​​​​​​​

Employees and clients of a commercial gallery only live for love; they dream it, proclaim it, sing it and dance it. Experience the encounters, reunions, passions and disappointments of a malicious chorus of girls and a group of idle boys.

Chantal Akerman is a Belgian filmmaker who explored the mundane details of ordinary life with a clear eye and a strong feminist sensibility. She directed over 40 films and created several art installations. Her best-known work is the avant-garde classic Jeanne Dielman, 23 quai du Commerce, 1080 Bruxelles (1975). 

Bozar is hosting a major exhibition dedicated to the work of Chantal Akerman, which can be visited until 21 July.
