The bus (1973)
"It's a very simple story, shot in a quiet street in Brussels. People waiting for the bus that is late, talking to each other, trusting each other, talking about the weather and giving each other practical tips. It is life as it is, in its troubling banality, that Van Antwerpen shows us. " (Luc Honorez, Le Soir, 1974).

Un joli petit coin (1980)
Inspired by a mime show ("Panem en circenses"), the film is a series of comical situations based on the absurd. Burlesque situations experienced by two tramps in a vague location. They don't know each other but have both chosen to spend the night there. The film tells of them approaching each other, at times being charming, at others jeering and being aggressive.

Le banc (1971)
"There are people who never go and sit on a public bench and there are people who sometimes go and sit on a public bench. These are very different people, the former walk very fast, the latter arrive, stay a moment and then leave. And it was the latter who interested me in particular. What do they do? Do they talk to each other? What do they say? My idea was to make a short film about that, showing five people who are very different from each other but who were all able to come and have a chat for a moment on a public bench." (Patrick Van Antwerpen)

Vivement ce soir (1985)
The film records a day in a supermarket in the Brussels region. The story of this day's little events, both comic and touching, provides the general framework of the film. The situations which are conveyed through an accumulation of quick, light touches, highlight some of the ways we behave in connection with food, the repetitive element in our gestures and movements in this everyday, enclosed world which is so familiar. The film is based on the observation of a supermarket and the people who shop or work there. More and more of their various personalities emerge in the course of the day. They all have their importance: we get to know them from the outside, like people in a group photo where each has his own place. All these individuals cross each other's paths, meet each other, bump into each other again and fill in the framework of the film with a many-sided tableau.

Mômimages, le monde des Spoks (1988)
Six Brussels children between ten to twelve years old make an animated film together in which they let their imaginations run wild. With great care, they sculpt characters, build sets, and bring everything to life with stop-motion. The end result is a universe full of angels and monsters, a creative translation of the way they experience the world around them. Filmmaker Patrick Van Antwerp gives a fascinating insight into the children’s creative process and the workings of the studio.

Gilles Ehrmann et la photographie (1993)
Essay film about a little known original and systematic work, that of Gilles Ehrmann, a photographer whose creative approach has deliberately kept away from easy modes and effects. This authenticity was praised among others by André Breton who saw in his photos so many "feasts of intelligence".
