Bêka & Lemoine

Artist filmmakers, Italy

Bêka & Lemoine are artist filmmakers working at the crossroads of visual arts and nonfiction cinema. For the past twenty years, Ila Bêka and Louise Lemoine have explored a critical perspective on architecture as a subtle instrument of social control. Through an observational and often humorous approach, their films foreground the frictions between design and everyday life, revealing how people experience, adapt to, resist or reinterpret architectural intentions. Their work shows how architecture shapes not only movement and behaviour but also emotions and social dynamics.
