Adapted from the novel of the same name by Johan Daisne, the film follows a middle-aged teacher who leaves his town after his beloved young student moves to another city. As he begins a new life as a civil servant, memories of the past and repressed desires open a deep fissure in his mind.
Regarded as the founding work of modern Belgian cinema, The Man Who Had His Hair Cut Short blends the every day with the subconscious, taking viewers on a journey between dream and reality. Spaces become abstract, time bends, and the narrative unravels in tandem with the character’s inner voice.
The film was restored by the Royal Film Archive of Belgium (CINEMATEK) with the support of A Season of Classic Films.
Pera Museum’s Cold Front from the Balkans exhibition curated by Ali Akay and Alenka Gregorič brings together contemporary artists from Albania, Bosnia and Herzegovina, Bulgaria, Croatia, Kosovo, Macedonia, Montenegro, Romania, Serbia and Slovenia.
Having penetrated the Balkans in the fourteenth century, conquered Constantinople in the fifteenth, and reached the gates of Vienna in the sixteenth, the Ottoman Empire long struck fear into European hearts.
