1977, casa tomada

1999 • 35 min • Argentina
On September 15, 1977, a blind couple and their three-year-old son, Iván, disappeared from their home in a repressive operation led by the Army, the Police, and the Gendarmerie. The child was later handed over to the couple's relatives. The house was occupied for 17 years by the Guarnic Center for Retired Non-Commissioned Officers and Gendarmes. The documentary aims to rescue memory; it focuses on a single character, Negrita, the mother of the disappeared blind woman, and her struggle. The intention is to shed light on an event that was kept hidden by the official narrative, and to highlight, in Mostar, the irreparable damage it causes.

Ron Athey Is the Trojan Whore

Ron Athey Is the Trojan Whore

1999 • 16 min
In this documentary Kerkhof takes the viewer into a bizarre underworld, the sub-culture of blood art and body piercing performance art. Kerkhof's camera registered a performance by the American blood artist Ron Athey which took place during the FREAK ZONE festival in Lille, France in May 1997. The camerawork is so freaky one would almost suspect it is under the influence of heroin. The film includes interviews with Athey as well as shocking live fragments wherein Athey works his face over with injection needles. The crazy, maniacal clamour of the HIV positive priest/performer gives us insights into the motives and goals of this group of masochistic performance artists. Somebody who entertains his audience by cutting and stabbing himself; is this art? Who can say? What is beyond question is that Kerkhof's masterful use of the camera and editing not only obscures the images but also the boundary between art and unbearable filth.
