Late 1967: the Belgian seaside resort of Knokke-le-Zoute is hosting the experimental film festival. A raft of side events, performances, happenings and protest actions are put on, involving Harun Farocki, Jean-Jacques Lebel, Shirley Clarke,Gustav Lamche, Armand Gatti, Mauricio Kagel, among others. This exhilarating atmosphere is what forged the legend of a festival that gave a decisive boost to Europe’s independent cinema.
