In the summer of 2001 the artists organisation NICC placed a container on the Fontainas square in the heart of Brussels. For one week Els Dietvorst used the container for auditions. 200 people auditioned in five days! This video is a report of three hours of these auditions.

'The Containertapes' is what the artist calls a process film and shows parts of the auditioning process of Dietvorst's 'Return of the Swallows' project.
