Jan Hoet - Thank God for the Gift plot
'Thank God for the Gift' tells the story of one of the most remarkable figures in recent Belgian art history: Jan Hoet. The film not only looks at his extraordinary career as a leading curator, but also at his flamboyant personality. A driven man with an insatiable passion for art, radical in his honesty and determined in his pursuit of total intellectual and emotional freedom. He took art out of the museum and brought it to people. We follow the path of an insecure young man who becomes a controversial pioneer in the art world, with great successes and much praise, but also a flood of criticism.
