Résumés(1)

Words on screen, appearing individually or in clusters. Is this a film or, as the unfolding text suggests, “sort of” a film? Answer: both! On a black or coloured background, graphically printed words appear on screen – we follow the words in time, taking the bait of constructing partial sentences and meanings. Meanings which are then endlessly recombined and remade, slyly and wittily. Here, Asselberghs bridges political, avant-garde cinema and the age of the ubiquitous telephone text message.
