Una película hecha de objetos, rostros y textos; de gatos perdidos, de cuadros encontrados, recortados, recreados; una subversión poética de la forma diario que rompe el calendario hacia la novela, con la permanente pulsión del viaje al fin del mundo. Una gozosa celebración de la vida y del deseo inagotable de hacer cine, por uno de los autores de referencia del cine-ensayo europeo.

This melodramatic film follows Eline Vere, as she attempts to break free from the confines of her narrow existence in The Hague through three tumultuous and ultimately disastrous courtships. Adaptation of Louis Couperus' novel Eline Vere.

This ethnographic film sends us the image of the man who eats, a stark look at Belgium. We spend about one-eighth of our days eating. Luc de Heusch films these repetitive gestures that seem trivial, yet reveal so much of a particular culture and a civilization. From morning to night, from the market installation to dinner, from the daily and fast meal to the feast, the ethnologist is interested in all social classes. Originally, an attempt of cinematographic ethnography, neutral and distant, intended to define the Belgians by the way they eat. In fact, Luc de Heusch films his contemporaries as if they were Papuans.
