PLOT
For the past 20 years, every July 20th, on the eve of Belgium's national holiday, thousands of people have been gathering on the Place du Jeu de Balle in Brussels. This is the “Bal National”, a unique celebration halfway between festival, carnival and family reunion. The event brings together people from all walks of life, who together define the contours of a certain “belgitude”. Jeux de Bal takes you right to the heart of this joyous collective experience.
