Trailer Synopsis Cast

An 83-year old Belgian man lives in a ramshackle mansion in Antwerp together with his son, who passes his time in the attic. But he is no ordinary old man, rather a photographer who, more than just about anybody else, chronicled the golden era of late 20th Century culture with candid snaps of such movers and shakers as The Beatles, The Stones, Jane Birkin, David Bowie and Frank Zappa – and thousands of others. © Business Doc Europe

With his grainy women's portraits, Gerard Fieret (1924-2009) managed to antagonize the entire late sixties establishment. In his mouse-infested studio he photographed his semi-or wholly undressed models as well as himself. His photographic work is increasingly recognised by collectors and museums. This documentary film by Frank van den Engel was shot during the final two years of his life. The camera shows Fieret alternately lucid and confused, stubborn and cooperative, accusing all and bemoaning his physical decline. (Summary from WorldCat)

This story has more twists and turns than a second-rate soap opera.

This is one of the few movies I've ever seen where the whole audience broke into spontaneous, loud applause a third of the way in.
