Augure; Omen to the Academy?🎞

It’s D-Day for Baloji and his first feature film Augure. In cinema’s across Belgium this November 15th.

Just last month, Augure was presented at Filmfest Ghent in the official selection, following Cannes in Spring.

Augure, being the French word for omen, tells the story of exactly that.

A small omen to the members of The Academy perhaps ? A good one.

Our filmmakers won’t budge. Once more presenting a fine opportunity to “Oscarize” a filmgem by a multitalented Belgian artist.

Omen To Be Continued
