One Thursday a month, the Palace invites you to discover Belgian cinema. New releases and classics by Belgian filmmakers.
BANDE D’HYSTÉRIQUES, Kita Bauchet
BE, 80′, 2026, VO FR/NL/EN – ST FR/NL
Weekend programming to follow on International Women’s Rights Day
Synopsis: Reflecting our post-#MeToo era, Bandes d’hystériques tells the little-known story of the women’s liberation movements of the 1970s in Belgium. Through, in particular, the irreverent actions of Dolle Mina in Flanders, the support for female miners in Wallonia, and the International Tribunal on Crimes Against Women, which brought together 2,000 women from around the world in Brussels, our feminine heritage emerges with humor and insolence. The images of these struggles and encounters with the women who led them shed light on the path we still have to travel to achieve full gender equality in law and in practice.
The screening will be followed by a Q&A with the director.
