For this first part of the season, Le 23 presents a selection of films that resonate with current exhibitions such as Love is Louder; Hans/Jean Arp & Sophie Taeuber-Arp: Friends, Lovers, Partners, or Rotor. Entangled Matter. These exhibitions have inspired a program highlighting essential names in cinema, offering a special showcase for Belgian cinema, newly released and restored films, as well as lesser-known but crucial cinematic gems.
Allow yourself to be guided through Close-ups dedicated to renowned filmmakers like Apichatpong Weerasethakul, Tizza Covi & Rainer Frimmel, Bêka & Lemoine, and Sergei Loznitsa. These special events will immerse you in their works through film screenings, carte blanche sessions, and remarkable encounters.
A cinema season rich in discoveries
We present a rich, new series of formats : Immersive Cinema, Close-Ups, New Voices in Cinema, Art & Film, Premieres, Our Burning World, VR Film Screenings, and the Family Film Club.
Don’t miss our inaugural immersive cinema event with A Conversation With The Sun by Apichatpong Weerasethakul. This innovative incursion into virtual reality creates the conditions for a collective dream.
To accompany the Love is Louder exhibition and its love pavilion Pav.Lov, we offer in November films about love in all its forms through the program Our Burning World - States of Love.
For family cinema enthusiasts, the new Family Film Club, in collaboration with the ANIMA and Fil’emon festivals, offers an eclectic selection ranging from animated films to fiction, emphasizing discovery. Classic and recent films from around the world are to be enjoyed with family or friends, for all generations.
Finally, mark your calendars: on December 13, we will launch the VR Film Screenings in Le 23 with one session per month starting in 2025. During the day and evening, we will offer VR film programs to be viewed with immersive headsets.
