Potential Estate offers
narrative placement

Potential Estate announces the distribution of The Crying of Potential Estate (Blank Version), a film of murder, money and multiplicity. It’s a simple story. Against a backdrop of a public auction a lethal plot is being executed. The unsuspecting audience is not only a silent witness. Its role seems bigger.

Potential Estate offers narrative placement: your publicity can become a character in the story. Publicity inserts in this TV-format are available and will be sold to the highest bidder.

Below you’ll find a list of potential placements. They are identified by lot number. If you choose, you can have a look at them on Youtube. But you can also ask us to send you a viewing copy of the film.

Bidding for each lot starts at 100 euro.

You can communicate your interest in one of the possible placements by contacting us on postmaster@potentialestate.org. In this way we can inform you on their current bidding status.

Who are they?

Potential Estate is a Belgian collaborative practice developing ‘residential’ scenarios. As a temporary collective we operate along models of self-organization and participation.

After an exploratory mission, Belgium, a small suburban entity in Wisconsin, U.S. – founded by their Belgian and Luxemburg ancestors – was identified as a possible ‘residential’ site.

Belgique : a ghost town
 Belgique is an unincorporated community in eastern Perry County, Missouri, USA. It is located about five miles south of Chester, Illinois. Its post office has closed and its mail now comes from Perryville. The community was founded in 1890 and is named after the French name for Belgium. In 1970 it had more than 20 occupied residences and a large building. Since the flood of 1993 there is no longer a town, but the cemetery remains.
