How can you design low-cost housing projects in total disregard for aesthetics? I can’t accept that, I’m sorry!


In C’est Arrivé Près De Chez Vous (1992), a film crew tails along the movements of Benoit, an amateur philosopher, a sophisticate that plays chamber music with his girlfriend, a poet, a loving son, and a fathomless sadistic serial killer.

C’est Arrivé… is Benoit Poelvoorde’s second appearance here at Och, and one not to be missed. See the trailer, read the essay, skim through the review, but don’t read the plot at wiki or imdb, and make sure it’s rainy and cold outside.
