Belgique – Fr
Arms deals are the future! Belgium, one of the smallest countries in the world, has one of the most renowned firearms factories in the world, FN Herstal. And these Belgian firearms often end up in the hands of war criminals around the world. This is a raw show that delves deep into this massive trafficking industry. Its task is enormous, due to the multiple and contradictory sources of information. The exhibits for the prosecution consist of files, books, interviews and images taken from war dispatches, sounds, weapons and ammunition. It’s all based on real events, and the reality often exceeds the imaginary.
