On the occasion of the Brussels Arts Weekend, held from 25 to 27 February, the four-part program, composed by Sven Sterken, is screened at the Cinéma Arenberg. This program presents various alternative readings generated by a metropolis with a number of video artists and documentary makers who are working in Belgium. Taking the surreal nature of the capital as a starting point, the result is truly a highly kaleidoscopic, and yet not any less subtle approach on the Belgian capital.
