Synopsis by Eleanor Mannikka
The specialized subject of this semi-documentary is the conflict between Flemish and Walloon factions in Belgium in the 1960s that ultimately ended in a dual-language amendment to the constitution. The unrest is shown by historical footage from a winter strike in 1960-61 and serves as the backdrop for a tragic love story between two people involved in the strike.
