Chelsea's BluesDanny Keuppens, Warre Keuppens
Not long after her birth, Chelsea was placed in a juvenile institution. At 19-year-old, she reconnects with people who have been important to her: her juvenile court judge, the farmer where she sometimes worked, a former neighbour, her best friend, her father ... Over the course of these meetings, she tries to learn more about who she was, but also who she is now and the wo she wants to become.
Chelsea Smekens-Demedts made this hopeful documentary about growing up in youth welfare together with supervisor Danny Keuppens and his son Warre. It turned out to be the ultimate way to look back upon her turbulent life in a new and healthy way. Through this film Chelsea aims to spread the message: "Don't just look at the behaviour of troublesome young people, but listen to their story and never give up on a happy ending."
