No Home Movie

xx ENCOUNTER WITH CHANTAL AKERMAN

Belgium / 2015 / 115'

“All you have is time. In my films you are aware of every second passing by. Through your body. You are facing yourself … You’re face to face with the Other. It’s from this crucial face-to-face that your sense of responsibility begins … That’s my idea of ethics. It’s why I want equality, always, between the image and the spectator. Or the passage from one unconscious toward the other.”
- Chantal Akerman

No Home Movie is a profoundly moving portrait of the filmmaker’s mother in the months leading up to her death, when she was mostly confined to her Brussels apartment.
