Created in partnership with Dalton Distribution, as part of the project En
cour(t)s de route, ‘Affaires de famille – In de beste families’ is a program of
5 short films by a new generation of women filmmakers. These films, both
powerful and moving, explore the family in every sense of the term, and offer
these young women directors the opportunity to illustrate, each in their own
way, the notion of being welded to one another: sometimes by purely genetic
ties, sometimes by the recomposition of households, and sometimes by encounters
resulting from the hazards of life.

d’illustrer, chacune à sa façon, la notion d’être soudé·es les un·es aux autres
: tantôt par des liens purement génétiques, tantôt par la recomposition des
foyers, tantôt encore par les rencontres issues des hasards de la vie.

Deze krachtige en ontroerende films verkennen het gezin in al zijn facetten en

notie van samenhorigheid te illustreren: soms door puur genetische banden, soms
door de reorganisatie van huishoudens, soms door toevallige ontmoetingen.

Premiere Emerging excitement, a dancing body, and the sensual awakening of
sexuality turn this experimental animation film by Florian Maubach into the
nucleus of a transformation process. SPROUT is a stimulating short film that
pushes boundaries but doesn't solely focus on the pleasure event. It's a
metaphorically charged short film that allows an important look behind the
curtain of male sexuality and relationships.CANE Bendix Mignon / DE / 2024 /
5min / DCP / OV EN, DE ST FR / Belgian Premiere“cane” is a celebration of queer
crip sex. It’s part of an ongoing (and very practical) research into crip porn,
into what it means to fuck with disability and normalcy. “cane” is an intimate
red-hot crip-sexy hip-grinding rhythmic conversation of a person and their
aid.PHĪNN-PHANG Chen Yu-Ling , Huang Jing-En / TW / 2023 / 2min / DCP / NO DIAL

self-fiction documentary was made with archival footage of Rafael as a child and
as a teenager, as well as footage of the adult artist, produced especially for
the project. The different times converge in unsuspected ways. The film
addresses topics such as the construction of memory and masculinity, the
expression of eroticism, as well as the structural homophobia and male
chauvinism.

sparkling and colorful night which brings us beyond what should be a one night
stand. Between two music notes, words fade out, language disappears and tongues
