  • The artists' grandparents' home in rural Belgium. "The main actors have died and here we are-- a crew of bumbling stagehands packing up the set. My hand is unsteady. My Flemish is terrible. I haven’t set foot in this house in 17 years! But the adults are ready. They sort, they select, they make lists. This will fit. That will not. Family members, the dispersing objects, the fixtures, the rooms, some childhood memories-- where exactly is the story? On the hard drive, everything is equal— equally forgotten. Until I find it again. CUT. The estate is under new direction." -- Isabelle Pauwels
