A dog lives a lonely life in the house of his master and tries to fill his days with all kinds of hobbies.

Beste Buren: Vlaamse Studentenfilms
70 minutes
On the occasion of the twentieth anniversary of the Cultural Treaty between Flanders and the Netherlands in 2015 under the header BestNeighbours, the Anima Festival in Brussels and HAFF join forces to celebrate the Flemish-Dutch creativity and cultural alliance with an inspiring programme focussing on the future: the new generation of animation talents.
Flanders and the Netherlands accommodate some internationally renowned professional training programmes for animation that educate a respectable number of students, whose productions have repeatedly been awarded over the years. In Flanders, think for example of Hogeschool KASK Ghent, RITS Erasmushogeschool Brussels, the LUCA School of Arts with campuses in Sint-Lucas Gent and Sint-Lukas Brussels, and the Media, Arts and Design Faculty (MAD) with campuses in Genk and Hasselt. Examples in the Netherlands include AKV St. Joost in Breda, Willem de Kooning in Rotterdam, University of the Arts Utrecht and the Gerrit Rietveld Academy Amsterdam. Recent top-ranking films from these academies have been assembled in a festive programme.
This program screened as part of Haff 2015

Alice
Alice' is the story of a girl who's brother suffers from cystic fibrosis and her remembering the past while waiting for the outcome of his lungtransplant. This theme is very important for me because my nephew suffers from this disease. I chose to make a movie about the impact of the illness on the relations in the family instead of the medical side of this theme.
'ALICE' VERTELT HET VERHAAL VAN DE ZUS VAN EEN MUCOPATIËNT. WE ZIEN DOOR HAAR OGEN HOE MUCOVISCIDOSE EEN EFFECT HEEFT OP HET GEZIN. WE ZIEN HAAR HERINNERINGEN WAAR ZE VERTELT HOE ZE STOND TEN
