Losing Our Minds/Buiten zinnen

On a blustery day in the spring of 2020 Eddy Verloes met a group of excited Hasidic Jewish boys on a Belgian beach, an encounter resulting in a series of photographs which would travel the world and make his name as a photographer. He asked the poet, Benno Barnard, who knows and loves Jewish culture, to write poems to accompany the images. Losing Our Minds is the moving and witty result of their cooperation. Inspired by the photos and poems, Bart Bekker and Jan Vanwinckel of the studio project 'The river curls around the town' took up the challenge to set these lyrics to music.
