Every year, the Flemish Audiovisual Fund (VAF) awards Wildcards to graduating filmmakers. Fourteen films were submitted in the Filmlab category which represents more experimental work. The jury – this year consisting of Ruben Demasure, Sofie Verdoodt and Lázara Rosell Albear – awarded the prize to Le tarantole dormono sotto le pietre by Giada Cicchetti, but at the same time noted that, overall, this new crop of filmmakers is coming up with strong and significant work.
Art Cinema OFFoff presents a personal selection of Filmlab graduation films from KASK School of Arts Ghent and LUCA School of Arts Brussels. Meet a new generation embracing experimentation.
In the presence of all of the filmmakers: Loes Vanneste (KASK), Sirine Jendoubi (LUCA), Arnaud Casier (LUCA) and Max Ferguson (LUCA). Giada Cicchetti (KASK) will join online from Italy.
