Roosenberg

Estonia, Belgium, 2017, 30’

Director: Ingel Vaikla

 

Roosenberg is a place, a space, a building, a film. Roosenberg is Amanda, Godelieve, Rosa and Trees. Roosenberg is a letter that tells of my encounter with four elderly nuns in a fascinating monastery in Belgium. We follow the every day communal life of the sisters, their religious practice and final departure from the building, in order to tell the story of modernist architecture. It is the story of an encounter, a story of a space at the beginning of the end.
