Love-22-Love plot

In Love-22-Love, video artist Jeroen Kooijmans reflects on his psychosis, his artistic practice, and his love for photographer Elspeth Diederix. What begins with a recording of his frightened face in a New York hospital in 2002 evolves into a self-portrait about falling, struggling, and starting over. Through old home videos, emails to himself, and personal voiceovers, Kooijmans takes us through twenty years of life and art.

I was drawn in by the artistry of the trailer and I was not disappointed: the film is a kind of ongoing exhibition of the art of Jeroen Kooijmans himself and his partner Elspeth Diederix, both prominent Dutch artists who underscore this with this film, in the form of a sort of video diary of Jeroen struggling with his depression and even descending into psychosis while he and she are working on their art and are madly in love with each other. As befits postmodern art, there is no clear distinction between life and art, real (nature) and manipulation, and the film is an impressive ode to love, art, and – even though Jeroen just cannot shake off the thought of death – life.

In 1992, Jeroen Kooijmans studied at the Rietveld Academy hoping to become a visual artist. He entered into a lifelong relationship with fellow student Elspeth Diederix. Kooijmans looks back on his life through videos and visual artworks and reflects on his relentless battle against depression. The letters he wrote to himself as therapy are meant to lend this a dramatic charge, but in fact, this is primarily a largely chronological collage of his artsy video portfolio. Disjointed and self-absorbed.
