When Léon M.’s Boat Went Down the Meuse for the First Time (1979)

Léon Masy sets off on board the boat that he built in his garage in Seraing to discover the activist's future. As he sails down the Meuse through today's landscape of old factories, he returns to the scene of a strike: that of 1960 when, for the last time, the lights of a rebellious region were reflected in the river's waters and when, also for the last time, he believed that his utopian dream would become a reality! Between the activist of twenty years earlier and his quest for a future, the boat's journey begins. A voyage between past and future: will he find his destination in the images of the activist of 1960?
