After twelve years of absence, Man Bites Dog returns. A new generation of television makers and screen faces is ready for a voyage of discovery through the fascinating world of the Flemish in a new season. They zoom in on current events and the unusual aspects of our daily lives, with a laugh, a tear and a touch of poetry. Man Bites Dog is happily wagging its tail again with brand new sections and - occasionally - an old section as the icing on the cake.
Dries Mertens and Jan Vertonghen are behind a brand new football competition: Masters of Madness. This completely new competitive experience focuses on entertainment, visual innovations, creative game changers and innovative rules. 8 teams of 10 talented players are coached by duos from different backgrounds from the sports, media or digital world. Masters of Madness is a competition that gives football extra oxygen by playing short, fast and entertaining on a smaller field. And especially with a whole series of innovative and sometimes slightly distorted rules.
"De Pleintjes" is a documentary about Antwerp's street football culture. Rough areas such as Het Kiel, Borgerhout, Deurne and Stuivenberg are the backdrops to the social lives of thousands of youngsters. It's these areas where they grow up, learn about the world, and above all, dream of a better future.
