The Giants
Freedom is the greatest adventure
Directed by Bouli Lanners
Produced by Centre du Cinéma et de l'Audiovisuel de la FWB, Versus Production
A coming-of-age summer story about two brothers navigating abandonment and poor choices, balancing youthful mischief with the weight of growing up too fast.
Brothers Seth and Zak, ages 15 and 13 ¾, are spending the summer in their deceased grandfather's house, waiting in vain for their mother, who is otherwise busy, and running low on cash. To make some money, they decide to rent out the house to a local drug dealer, but things don't go exactly as planned...
