"Johan van der Keuken: The Complete Collection Vol. 1"
1960-1994
Directed by Johan van der Keuken

The groundbreaking films of award-winning documentary filmmaker Johan van der Keuken stretch the boundaries of both documentary and narrative fiction. Rejecting the traditional documentary format as too restrictive, he uses fictional techniques to depict content drawn from real life, resulting in a uniquely personal style that is at once daring and engaging. Includes I Love $, Beauty, A Moment of Silence, The Eye Above the Well, Lucebert: Time and Farewell, The Unanswered Question, On Animal Locomotion, Face Value, and The Mask. "Along with Errol Morris and Chris Marker, van der Keuken is one of the true inheritors of the poetic documentary style of Dziga Vertov" (San Francisco Bay Guardian). French, English, and Dutch with French, English, and Dutch Subtitles. Spanish subtitles on disc 2 only.  517 minutes.
