HELLHOLE by Bas Devos will have its world premiere in Berlin, in the Panorama section. This is Devos' second feature film after the acclaimed VIOLET (2014), selected at the 64th Berlinale where it won the main prize of the Generation 14plus-section. Bas Devos is one of the Variety’s 10 Europeans to Watch.
SYNOPSIS
Three starkly different people deal with the aftermath of the terrorist attacks in Brussels in May 2016. A Flemish doctor, whose son is a fighter jet pilot on a mission in the Middle East, is forced to confront his loneliness. A young man from Algerian descent is asked by his brother to do him a deceivingly simple favor. An Italian woman, who works in the heart of the European Institutions, is slowly losing control under the pressure of her demanding life. The same question that seems to haunt the city looms over their lives : where do we go from here?
