DESCRIPTION:Jan Decorte | 1976 | BE | 90’ | EN subtitles\n\nTheater directo
	r Jan Decorte’s first feature film spans a day and a night in the\nlonely 
	life of a Brussels municipal employee. Pierre lives with his mother in an\
	nold-fashioned house in a declining working-class neighborhood. Every morn
	ing\,\nPierre takes the tram to work at city hall\, where he listens to hi
	s colleagues’\njokes during his lunch break. His only hope of escaping his
	 boredom and\nfrustrations lies with a girl from the gymnastics club. One 
	evening\, when his\nmother is out\, he invites her over to his place.\n\n“
	One person is an inscrutable mystery to another. The ultimate meaning and\
	nmotives behind most of the actions a person takes remain hidden from him.
	 What\,\nthen\, of knowledge—of the possibility of knowing another person’
	s motives?\nShould we not question the very existence of motives?” — Jan D
	ecorte\n
