Hop

Directed by Dominique Standaert

Digitally shot in crisp black and white, this is a lively and provocative tale of Justin and his father, Burundian refugees living sans papiers in Brussels. When dad is caught and slated for deportation, his son forms an unlikely alliance with an old anarchist and his girlfriend to fight the system and get his father back. Both charming and insightful, HOP is a real treat.
