KIM (Erika Kapronczai, 2022, Hungary)
Delve into the world of Kim Corbisier, the multi-talented Belgian-Hungarian artist who left an indelible mark on the art world before her tragic death at the age of 27. The film offers a glimpse into Kim’s life and reveals the creative process of an artist who managed to transform the pain and chaos resulting from drug addiction and an identity crisis caused by a series of unfortunate family events, into unique works of art. Director Erika Kapronczai unfolds the story as a mosaic of authentic footage shot on camera by Kim herself, with poignant recollections of her loved ones. Kim shot this footage with the intention of making a documentary film about her struggle with drug addiction and after her death, Erika decided to complete it as a memoir of her life, paying tribute to her legacy.
The film is available on KineDok's VOD in all KineDok countries (Czech Republic, Slovakia, Hungary, Romania, Georgia and Croatia). To watch it for free, you need a voucher, which you can request at films@kinedok.net.
