In Belgian Cinema: 1973-2016, Ricardo Luiz de Souza analyses Belgian cinema in the period from 1973 to 2016, a time when names such as Chantal Ackerman, Andre Delvaux and the Dardenne brothers made their films. This period of Belgian cinema is analysed not only from the point of view of the masterpieces that were made in it, but also from the point of view of some less happy and expressive moments, which nevertheless help us to understand some of the strands and guidelines of this cinema.
