In collaboration with De Uitkijk, t he digital literary magazine DIG is organising a special screening of *Roo ksporen* to mark the digital reissue of *De vrouw die een rookspoor achter liet* by Lidy van Marissing. This experimental work formed the basis for t he film and was difficult to access for a long time. With this revised edi tion, DIG aims to fill that gap.

The film will be introduced by Fiep van Bodegom, who also wrote a new afterword for the re issue. Following the screening, a pirated copy of Van Marissing’s debut no vel Ontbinding will also be available.

The central charac ter in *Rooksporen* (1992) is a woman facing an interrogator. Interspersed with these interrogation scenes are sequences in which 26 witnesses (from A to Z) are introduced: first in their homes and then in a room adjoining the interrogation room. The interrogator has an ambiguous identity and ro le: at times he addresses the woman directly with questions, at others he turns exclusively to the witnesses, listening and watching, acting as a so unding board. The witnesses, too, have an elusive identity. Who or what th ey are remains unclear; they exist thanks to the sensuality and/or enigmat ic nature of their language. Nor is it entirely clear what the woman is ac cused of. Most witnesses do conclude that she is guilty, but of what exact ly remains the question. The only thing that is beyond doubt is that she i s an outsider. Just when she seems to be pin-pointable, she eludes the dan ce in which every observer tries to draw her into their own perspective. < /p>
