Wedding Trough

An evocation of the work of the playwright and writer Eugène Ionesco through a series of interviews, footage shot in his studio and extracts from his plays.

An exploration of death through diverse funeral rites and other cultural responses to mortality across several countries, including South Korea, Thailand, Mexico, Belgium, and the USA. The film observes practices ranging from elaborate public burials to the process of cremation, offering a look at how different societies confront death and the deceased, sometimes in graphic detail.

In 1971 Thierry Zéno creates a fascinating portrait of artist Georges Moinet in the form of a 16 mm medium-length film. A schizophrenic who lives in a psychiatric hospital near Namur, Moinet paints. After being mute for 24 years he chooses this cinematic encounter to explain his artist approach, revealing what lies behind his personal cosmogony. But this long logorrhoea proves disturbing and fails to provide possible clues to understanding his work, gradually becoming a form of music that blends in with the sounds and distant, invisible hubbub of the hospital. With Alessandro Ussai behind the camera and Roger Cambier responsible for the sound, Zéno gets up close to Moinet to better capture him in all his demiurgical excessiveness, his existence on the fringes but also his humanity, deconstructing in a series of very tight shots the man and his canvasses.

These tales for children under three years of Eugène Ionesco are illustrated by drawings of children. The presence of the storyteller is preponderant on the screen. The images of his aged face filmed in close-up create a strange atmosphere.
