The Tulse Luper Event in Montreal
During the Montreal Festival of New Cinema, that will take place October 14-24, 2004, the complete trilogy will be screened. This will be the very first time that the film, which is 7 hours of Tulse Luper, is to be seen in one piece.
Different websites of The Tulse Luper Suitcases will be presented in Montreal:
The Tulse Luper Network, the online archive of Luper’s adventures, the places he visited, the characters he met, his prisons, the projects he made, the objects that were found in the 92 suitcases and of some events in 20th century history.
www.tulselupernetwork.com
The Tulse Luper Journey, there will be a sneak preview of this new game. The Tulse Luper Journey is an online interactive journey through Europe’s 20th century history. Based on director Peter Greenaway’s filmtrilogy ‘The Tulse Luper Suitcases’, the purpose of the game is to reconstruct the film’s main character’s - Tulse Luper - life. Luper was supposedly born in 1911 in Newport, Wales and presumed dead in 1989. However, his life is continually shrouded in mystery and doubt. During the game numerous hints are given; there are film fragments, puzzles and letters written by different characters that play a part in the story, giving the audience chunks and pieces of Tulse Luper’s walk of life. The extensive nature of the story is ideal for a complex game structure, which will be centered around 92 suitcases that Luper has left behind – 92 puzzles which must be solved by the player to reveal the ‘mystery’ surrounding Tulse Luper.
The Tulse Luper Journey will be published on www.tulseluperjourney.com and will also be available through www.SubmarineChannel.com/tulseluper. A new level will be made public every week.
We will experience the premiere of a very special website. One that is especially made for the Montreal Festival of New Cinema. To keep yourself posted, please check the Kasander Film Website: www.kasanderfilm.nl. Here you will find the latest news about this mysterious Tulse Luper Website.

Luper in Gent
Until October 31, 2003 there is an exhibition of a small collection of Luper's suitcases and their contents in Galerie Fortlaan 17, Gent, Belgium. For more information you can visit:
In the 30's Luper had been resident in an apartment at Martinstreet, Antwerp, ostensibly earning a living as a Natural History correspondent for various English newspapers. His reporting activities were probably a cover for observing the political and military build-up of the Germans in the years leading up to the invasion of Holland and Belgium in May 1940, and the effects of international fascism on Belgian sympathies. Without a doubt, either as a naturalist or spy, Luper visited Gent...

Tulse and the southern hemisphere
To our knowledge Tulse has never travelled south of the equator - but like Kafka inventing an America he had never visited, it might not be entirely impossible to imagine an apocryphal visit. He writes of Kangaroo Island, south of Adelaide, as though he might have been there, and there is a story about a gifted uxorious marsupial that Luper is known to have written after his photograph was taken in 1940 outside the Marsupial House in Antwerp Zoo.
