Coup de GraceGriet Van Reeth, Dorothee Van Den Berghe

A few years ago, Alain Platel, renowned choreographer, invited twelve musicians from Kinshasa for a unique performance, a special symbiosis of baroque and African music. During the two-year tour through Europe, the musicians constantly oscillate between two worlds: daily life in Europe and online contact with their homeland, friends and family. They enclose Europe in their hearts, but they also miss Kinshasa. When the tour comes to an end, it's time to go home. But, what is home?

Documentaries made by familiar faces or by young newcomers. The strongest film will be announced the winner of the Jury Prize for Best Belgian Documentary.
