Host Roel Van Bambost

Flemish film expert Roel Van Bambost, who succeeded Jo Röpcke from 1991 to 2010 as film critic for VRT, is looking every year for the best films for our older film fans.

"Every year, programme director Wim De Witte and I look for suitable films for the Plus Parcours. Our search even brings us to the film festivals of Berlin and Cannes, so we can offer you a diverse selection. We do not always go for the easy or popular films, but we also want to introduce you to new genres and exceptional cinema from all over the world. Moreover, we like to bring the maker of the film to Ghent, so he can offer you a wealth of information about the production process of the film.

We hope that our choices will captivate, move and stay with you."
