De Grote Post | Belgium premiere Filmfestival Oostende | Short Film competition

SATURDAY Jan. 28, 2023 | 13:45

FRIDAY Feb. 3, 2023 | 14:00 - followed by a guided tour by art historian and Spilliaert specialist, Anne Adriaens - Pannier in MuZee (16:30; Romestraat 11, Oostende).

In Spilliaert, filmmaker Lisa Spilliaert inquires into her blood relationship with the renowned Belgian artist Léon Spilliaert (1881-1946). Is she predestined to an artist’s life by this kinship, which may or may not be fictitious? She reveals herself as a rapping, fanatical genealogist who probes into the origins of her artistry.

"Spilliaert" is recently purchased by the Flemish Community and taken into custody by Mu.ZEE and will also be shown in the museum during the film festival.
