Speaking about their film, the two directors told Cineuropa: “For Kind Hearts, we did not set out to make a documentary ‘about’ love, but instead wanted to take a look at a love affair in its specifics, depicting meeting points between the two lovers, Billie and Lucas. The experience of love is closely linked to the experience of narrative; in our minds, we recreate love as an adventure. This notion of love as a construction is also reflected in the form of the movie, characterised by its ambivalent place between staging and documentary. For us, working on a film is always a matter of attention, care and concentration, both in the choice of form, and in its relationship to people and places. Kind Hearts’ ambition is to adopt a loving gaze at how these two lovers relate to the world and each other.”

The feature is also in the running for the Berlinale Documentary Award, consisting of a €40,000 cash prize sponsored by public broadcaster Rundfunk Berlin-Brandenburg (rbb).

Kind Hearts was produced by Belgium’s Accattone Films in co-production with Canvas. It also received support from the Vlaams Audiovisueel Fonds (VAF), the Flemish Community Commission, the City of Brussels, Beursschouwburg and deAuteurs.
