I thought the same tells the story of a small village in the east of France in an eleven- minute video work. Hidden between deep forests and the foothills of the Vosges moun- tains, the village of 800 souls harbours a supposed secret: an unknown artist is said to have bought a house at the end of the thoroughfare and filled it with all kinds of art treasures. Warning signs, lowered shutters, security cameras and ominous vans that appear irregu- larly in front of the house seem to support the villagers‘ theory. Gradually, a myth develops around the lonely house and its interior, which mutates from a simple holiday home to a high-security bunker for paintings.
