‘Personal Tragedy (2008)’ Press

Joeri’s last project as a director. Initially based on the work of Dutch author Gerard Reve, the project moved towards an evocation of the dark, sexually loaded atmosphere of a darkroom. Lots of nudity, lots of gore and subdued conversations about unspeakable desires. Was awarded the doubtful honor of being named the number 1 worst performance of 2008 in a Belgian newspaper.
