Trivia, insights & behind the scenes
Filmed during Belgium's 'black wave' of 1990s cinema, when Flemish directors rejected Hollywood polish for raw psychological excavation. S. embodies the era's obsession with fractured identity in a unifying Europe.
Natali Broods improvised most of her New York scenes after Henderickx lost his shooting permits. The disorientation you see is genuine—she was literally undocumented on American streets.
