Le récit de mon père / My father's story
Philippe Van Cutsem82'
14 — Octobre

Synopsis
The images are the films my father shot with a Super 8 camera in the 70's and 80's. These were never edited. Images such as one finds in most family footage. Moments of quiet happiness. The story is his story. It is his own narrative, the one he needed to tell me, outlined by the film through the medium of my voice – a tale of hardship, suffering, disease and death. The images, the story : two sides of the same coin that, thanks to the editing process, now face eachother.
