(2020-…)
The Post Film Collective practices cinema as a form of polyphony, space and communal assembly. Formed in 2020, the collective is based between Ghent, Antwerp and Brussels.
The Post Film Collective elaborates on the work and experiences of The Post Collective into the realm of cinema, upon an invitation by Robin Vanbesien.
The Post Film Collective is currently creating its first feature film ‘On Recreation’ (working title), which explores a polyphonic cinema practice while taking its cue from the poem ‘Recreation’ by Audre Lorde. In her poem, Lorde explores a double binding of interrelating activities – ‘it is easier to work / after our bodies / meet’ – that led to what she claimed was ‘recreation’, with its connotations of play, reciprocity, care, repetition, and regeneration. The film process is available for the continuous re-composition of both conditions and artistic forms. The gathering of various languages, expressions, and rhythms prevents the film production from nesting neatly.
The film is currently in its development phase (2021).
