The archives of eleven programmes made for RTBF between 1977 and 2003 reveal a crucial period in the use of asbestos in Belgium and Europe. All the risks were known to the industrialists, but the workers gradually discovered them through illness and death. The 20 years preceding the ban on asbestos in Belgium in 1998 were cynically won by the industry through its propaganda, denial, and lies, as well as the passivity of public authorities and the complacency of scientific and trade union circles that it managed to rally to its cause. In 1995, the removal of asbestos from the Berlaymont, the building housing the European Commission, opened the eyes of the general public to the dangers posed by asbestos. The long battle of the victims for compensation could finally begin. In 2017, the Brussels Court of Appeal confirmed that Eternit, the former champion of asbestos cement, had known about the dangers of asbestos since at least the 1960s and had done everything to hide them. But the story does not end there. Asbestos is still used in many countries. In Europe and Belgium, although banned, it is still present everywhere in the environment, homes, and schools. Cancers sometimes emerge decades after exposure, and the peak of diseases has not yet been reached. A real ticking time bomb, asbestos continues to claim hundreds of victims annually in Belgium, thousands in Europe, and over 100,000 worldwide.

This film takes us on a journey to Kinshasa in the company of Damso, a Belgian rap star...

He was called "The Cannibal" because he seemed to devour his opponents. Belgian cycling legend Eddy Merckx won everything there was to win on a bike between 1967 and 1975: five Tours de France, five Giros, three World Championships, one Vuelta, a legendary world hour record in Mexico, and a multitude of classics. In less than a decade, he became the ultimate icon of cycling. Directors Christophe Hermans and Boris Tilquin offer a fresh perspective on the Merckx phenomenon. In this documentary, composed entirely of archival footage, the highs and lows of his career unfold naturally. But Merckx is more than just a list of victories and crashes. Rare, unseen images also paint a portrait of a remarkable era when cycling was undergoing a transformation. The film reveals the inspiring man behind the legend and tells a universal story about willpower, and how it can be harnessed to overcome the greatest challenges.
