Argument

This film exposes the case of a Belgian village crossed by three borders: the Germany, the Holland, the Belgium. It recalls the universe of the workers, that of the customs officers and that of the defrauders… Henri Storck weaves between all these actors a common intrigue and approaches social and economic topics.

Comment

According to Luc de Heusch, president of the Funds Henri Storck.

Faithful to the spirit of the cinema of reality, Storck illustrates a series of social problems by taking pretext of the birth of the Benelux. It treats with humor, of the embarrassments of the crossing of frontiers in a Belgian village located at the crossroads of the Germany and Netherlands. He pleads thus in a pleasant way in favor of future the European Union.

For information, the title of this film is a rather subtle contrepetrie.
