movie "Les Barons"
"Les Barons" is a Belgian movie (2009) from Nabil Ben Yadir about youngster from the seconds and third generation living in Molenbeek, Brussels.
Four friends from the second or third generation immigrants hanging around the streets of Molenbeek, a working class district to the west of Brussels. They are unemployed and are involved in many deals. They create their own identity: they are the "barons", a sort of bon vivants. But this sometimes leads to conflicts with their own ambitions and desires, and even with the hard reality.

Second impression of Molenbeek
Yesterday, we went on a second fieldtrip to Molenbeek and our first impression had to be revised already. The quiet market of sunday was now overloaded by people and watched by the police ...
At the BelleVue Brewery some students were working, so it would be nice if we could work there intense for one or two weeks .... (more news will follow!)
La Fonderie has a big documentation center with more than 9000 magazines about the region of Brussels, completed with a photothèque.

First glimpse of Molenbeek
Yesterday, we had a first walk from the new- to the old-Molenbeek, seperated by the old railway-system...
A high concentration of neighborhood centers, houses and commitées.
We ended up in the former customs building of Tour &Taxis.
