"The exercises have to be adapted to the dispositions of the person who wishes to practice them, that is to his age, education and ability, in order not to give to one who is uneducated, weak or in poor health, things he cannot easily bear or profit by. Similarly, they should only be given to each person according to his availability."
Ignatius of Loyola, Spiritual Exercises, 1548

ABOUT OLIVIER SMOLDERS
Born in 1956 in Léopoldville (former Belgian Congo), Olivier Smolders completed his studies in Belgium. A graduate in Roman Philology and lecturer at the University of Liège, he also teaches at INSAS, the Brussels film school. He has written and produced his own short films via his own production company, Les Films du Scarabée.
He is currently one of the most innovative figures in cinematic – particularly Belgian, but also experimental – circles. The author of various books on literature and the cinema, he has also written numerous articles that have been published in different journals and magazines. His work as filmmaker, sustained by his background in literature, confronts text with image in a way that that challenges our perceptions…

COMMENT
From his first dark and disturbing efforts to the rough sentimentalism of Mort à Vignole, via the tragic and dazzled gaze of the poignant Seuls or the gory excess of Adoration, Smolders’ cinema speaks to us from a dissident, outlying and amoral setting, a wonderfully dangerous world where he never revels in things, where he never repents and where he invites us, roughly at times, to sink into the mire with him…
