What if your dreams are bigger than the expectations others have? The debut feature by writer/dancer/filmmaker Ish Ait Hamou and his brother Monir shows two brothers struggling with this. While the older brother gets the chance to pursue his martial arts career in the United States and leave his life as a factory worker in Brussels behind for a while, the youngest struggles with the expectations and pressures of those around him.

So BXL is by no means just a personal story of two brothers from Brussels, but also a reflection on how society affects our dream life. (Film Fest Gent)
