NOVEMBRE 1998

Directed by Hélèna Villovitch

Jan Peters films and talks every day, every day fills a reel of Super-8 or 16mm film. He speaks to the camera, or records a commentary on the images he is filming. For a month, Jan Peters tries to reflect on different themes, and events sometimes come to upset his plans. A quasi-police investigation in Belgium interferes with an intimate relationship; technical problems of all kinds (sound, image, light, film development, automobile mechanics) force the filmmaker to invent other solutions; a debate between filmmakers on the theme of the power of images turns into burlesque; artist friends want to contribute to the film that is being made. Thus, day after day, a film is built. Some things are planned, others are not.
