Darren Aronofsky : Retrospective & Carte Blanche

‍

To mark Darren Aronofsky's visit to Brussels, NewFrames partners with CINEMATEK for a full retrospective of his work — from his electrifying debut Pi to his latest film, Caught Stealing. A deep dive into the universe of a filmmaker haunted by bodies, obsessions, and the limits of what it means to be human. Alongside the retrospective, Darren Aronofsky has selected ten films that have shaped his vision of cinema and of life. A personal programme, unfiltered.
