DeJong&DeWitte | I Was Here

A theatrical and cinematic route, cutting straight through reality. DeJong&DeWitte explore the story of a neighbor who lived and died unnoticed. Equipped with an iPod we enter the house – and in doing so, the past life – of this unknown man. What secrets will his coffee cup, his chair or his old sweater reveal? Can we still unravel his dreams and desires? While uncovering his remaining possessions – the last tangible proofs of his existence – we do not only look back on his life, but also question ourselves: what does this reveal about ourselves?
