Overview

Triggered by the arrival of the TGV in Brussels, the "revitalization" of the Midi district is a saga that is still not complete, 20 years after its launch. This project led by the public authorities has turned into a real nightmare for the inhabitants: in the midst of empty or demolished houses and offices that are struggling to keep up with the pace of development, the Midi district has become a real paradise. To fill in, these people have been living under the threat of an "extreme emergency" expropriation... for 16 years. A film where the grotesque mixes with desolation, laughter with revolt.
