Thoughts and Visions of a Severed Head

The theme of death is heavily interwoven in Smolder’s surreal salute to Belgian painter Antoine Wiertz, a Hieronymus Bosch-type artist whose work centered on humans in various stages in torment, as depicted in expansive canvases with gore galore. Smolders has basically taken a standard documentary and chopped it up, using quotes from the long-dead artist, and periodic statements by a historian (Smolders) filling in a few bits of Wiertz’ life.

Directors: Olivier Smolders, Johan Van den Driessche

Cast: Christian Courtois, Alexandre von Sivers, Lémi Cétol, Barbara De Jonghe, Catherine Aymerie
