The INSIDE OUT installation in the JR: Chronicles exhibition is screening our original film on Brussels’ Afghan refugees that was published first online for World Refugee Day June 20th 2016 : Béguinage Refugees Into The Wild (4) . This film wasn’t replaced by the special exhibition edition (with updated credits) we offered (Sep 2019) for the premiere of JR: Chronicles in the Brooklyn Museum. We later did publish that new 4K edition online , entitled “Béguinage Refugees Into The Wild ~ JR: Chronicles Edition” (5).
