Synopsis<\/h3>\n
\"\"
Screenshot<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

Na een relatiebreuk verhuist casting agent Julia (29) naar Brussel. In een Airbnb ontmoet ze Eliott (32), een zwijgzame maar gedreven microbioloog die binnenkort naar Groenland vertrekt voor zijn doctoraatsonderzoek.<\/p>\n

Wat begint als een toevallige vriendschap groeit uit tot een bijzondere ontmoeting die een onverwachte impact heeft op hun levens, tot het moment waarop hun wegen opnieuw scheiden.<\/p>\n

Van kortfilm naar langspeeldebuut<\/h3>\n

Leni Huyghe is een in Brussel gevestigde onafhankelijke filmmaker, geboren en opgegroeid in Gent (1986). Ze behaalde een Master in Audiovisuele Kunsten aan LUCA Brussel en een Master in Internationale Betrekkingen aan de Universiteit Gent. Daarnaast is ze alumna van Berlinale Talents.<\/p>\n

Hoewel ze ervaring heeft in documentaire en experimentele film, ligt haar voornaamste focus op fictie. Ze realiseerde vijf kortfilms die internationaal werden bekroond en geselecteerd op festivals zoals Cin\u00e9fondation in Cannes, Visions du R\u00e9el en Palm Springs.<\/p>\n

In 2020 werkte ze mee aan de documentaire J\u2019attendrai le jour et la nuit<\/em> over de COVID-crisis in woonzorgcentra voor de Belgische openbare omroep Canvas<\/span><\/span><\/strong>. Daarnaast regisseerde ze het tweede seizoen van de jongerenwebreeks Hacked<\/em> en werkt ze samen met producent Elisa Heene (Mirage) aan haar volgende fictielangspeelfilm.<\/p>\n

Het scenario van Real Faces<\/strong> schreef Huyghe samen met Vincent Vanneste.<\/p>\n

De film ging eerder al in wereldpremi\u00e8re op het SXSW Festival<\/span><\/span><\/strong> in Texas, en kende nu ook een warme Belgische ontvangst in Oostende.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
