MARIEKE, MARIEKE, 2010, Sophimages, 85 min. Dir. Sophie Schoukens. Young Marieke works at a Brussels chocolate factory during the day, and at night half-heartedly entertains relationships with a number of older suitors. The appearance of Jacoby, a book editor searching for Marieke's late father's unfinished manuscript, changes all that. Does she love Jacoby? Will her relationship with Jacoby push her emotionally distant mother even farther away from her? In French with English subtitles. Belgian beer reception to follow the screening. [35mm]
