"The mask: During the celebrations of the bicentennial of the French Revolution in 1989, Johan van der Keuken made a film about the revolutionary ideas of equality, liberty, and fraternity. Rather than focusing on the festivities, he lingers on the crowds in the metro and on the platform. Among them is a homeless member of the poor class who is ignored by his more affluent countrymen. A cutting perspective on the contraditions that permeate French society."
"Mask: "Alors qu'en 1989, la France célèbre dans le faste le bicentenaire de la Révolution, Johan van der Keuken suit dans ses tristes pérégrinations un exclu de la fête, un laissé pour compte de la République. Le cinéaste pose ainsi un regard aigu sur les contradictions de la société française à travers le portrait de Philippe, 23 ans, garçon de café au chômage et sans domicile fixe, un "nouveau pauvre" ignoré et méprisé par la foule endimanchée."--Site web arteboutique."
"Face value: Rejecting linear narrative storytelling, the director offers an epic of humanity and cultural diversity through a cartography of faces, the reflection of an imaginary Europe, made up of London, Marseilles, Prague, and the Netherlands."
"Face value: "Refusant la linéarité du récit, le cinéaste propose une véritable polyphonie des apparences, une cartographie de visages, reflet d'une Europe imaginaire et partielle, entre Londres, Marseille, Prague, et Pays-Bas."--Site web arteboutique."
