IMPAKT Channel
Curated Programme: Stardom

Still from ‘Looking for Alfred’ (2004), a documentary by Johan Grimonprez
In times of Corona, IMPAKT is highlighting its curated Channel programmes. Stardom is the programme of several short films curated by Jonas Schupp, as part of his internship at IMPAKT in 2019. This programme about stardom examines notions of appearance, performance, identity, representation, intimacy, ordinariness, success, consumption and authenticity, but also the obsession, frustration and jealousy associated with the desire to be a real star.
