"The Soundman" (Promotional still)

On the eve of the German invasion of Belgium in 1940, a tender attachment forms between a gifted young radio apprentice and a rising actress. Inside Brussels’ famed Flagey Building, 18-year-old Berre rises from intern to sound engineer, creating immersive live radio drama soundscapes that captivate Elza, a luminous on-air performer seeking joy in uncertain times. As their fragile bond deepens amid air-raid sirens and rising antisemitism, the radio studio becomes a haven where imagination and escape push back the gathering darkness.

Boston premiere.

The screening will be followed by a conversation with director Frank Van Passel, moderated by Matt Sienkiewicz, Professor of Communication and International Studies at Boston College.
