De Slag Om Leuven

Leuven '68

The film tells the story of the turbulent years of 1966 to 1968 in Leuven, years in which a widely supported and very intense student revolt shocked the country on its foundations.

De brand van Leuven

At the end of August 1914 Leuven became the victim of blind rage war. Virtually the entire city center was systematically destroyed by the Germans. War journalist Rudi Vranckx explains what happened.

Een andere school

1975. A group of young parents, dissatisfied with the traditional school system, establish a new school. The demand for a different type of education proves so great that they soon have to expand. They end up in an old farmhouse on the edge of a forest. There, for the first time in Flanders, they put Freinet pedagogy into practice. "Een Andere School" tells the story of this remarkable experiment by a group of idealists, but it is also a film about the life and work of the French educator Célestin Freinet.

The Extraordinary Life Story of Karl Eriksson

The wonderful life story of Karl Eriksson, passionate musician, fervent world traveler and free spirit, always on the road and tirelessly searching. He grows up as the son of Bert Eriksson, former leader of the notorious Order of Flemish Militants and manager of a extreme right pub. But at a very young age, Karl chooses a very different path. Like previous historical documentaries by director Johan Van Schaeren, a wealth of historical footage is unlocked, this time to tell a unique musical, political and Antwerp story.
