What's on this week: 29 April-6 May

British documentary maker Louis Theroux will be in Kinepolis Leuven on 29 April to introduce the Belgian premiere of feature documentary, My Scientology Movie. Other highlights from the programme of Flanders’ annual documentary film festival Docville include Finders Keepers, the barely believable story of two men, a mummified leg and a lengthy lawsuit; The Nightmare, a look into extreme forms of sleep paralysis (“That’s when the shadow man comes. It’s like a horror movie.”); and Nuts!, an animated documentary about a 1920s doctor who surgically implanted goat testicles to cure impotence.

The Star Wars convention was a venerable institution. With no studio support during the series’ interregnum, the fan community organised hundreds of grassroots events around the world. The multibillion dollar sale of Lucasfilm to Disney changed everything. Marketing resumed its corporate character, even when outsourced to local affiliates. Star Wars Legion, this one-day pop-up exhibition of stormtrooper helmets, invites 30 contemporary Belgian artists to customise the iconic headwear of the films’ expendable villains. The results are visually interesting and perhaps will appeal to a new generation of fan.

A native of the wild environs of Adelaide, Dave Graney forsook a promising career in Australian rules football to become a rock singer. He and his partner, drummer Clare Moore, formed the Moodists and decamped to London in the 1980s as part of the Aussie post-punk invasion spearheaded by The Birthday Party. He returned home the following decade a national treasure, racking up awards for his literate brand of song-writing and receiving them with puckish insouciance. An invitation to perform at the latest edition of UK festival All Tomorrow’s Parties gives Graney and Moore the excuse to tour Europe once more.
