Gilles

Directed by Jan Verheyen

12-year-old Gilles dreams of becoming a professional footballer in the Belgian national squad, playing as a Red Devil at the King Baudouin Stadium. Father Bert supports Gilles through thick and thin: he is not only Gilles' most loyal supporter, but also his personal trainer. But then, completely unexpectedly, Bert dies and Gilles' life collapses. Not only does he lose his father, his friend, his supporter and his trainer, there are also quite a few financial concerns coming out ...
