The economic situation is a nightmare: only 20% of the population is employed. The Actives live inside the city. On the fringes, in the Zone, live the Jobless. Separating them is a wall.

After his parents’ death, Shawn, 19 and mildly delinquent, tries to look after his little sister to cash in on his dad’s life insurance. But you can’t buy love -- and you sure can’t ignore it. Shawn will find out he’s got more to gain by giving than taking.

Vincent Lannoo’s ‘mockumentary’ shows us a community of vampires in Belgium. The two ‘parents’ of the family are George and Bertha, who have two teenage children – or rather, they raise two former humans who they turned into vampires. Son Samson is a bit of a jack the lad: enjoying the sexual freedom of vampire life, with all the vigour of an irresponsible young adult regardless of consequences (even incest is not frowned upon in their world, where the word ‘wife’ is often synonymous with ‘mother’ or ‘sister’). Daughter Grace yearns for humanity in a different way: applying fake tan to get rid of her vampiric pallor, dressing in pink clothes, wishing she could feel emotion and even having a human boyfriend.

George is a furniture seller. He's a reliable husband and a good father, a loyal friend and a fine handyman. One day on the motorway, he cracks up and kills a man in an outburst of rage. He feels responsible for the man's wife, but terrified by his own violence, he doesn't know how to handle her. This is the starting point for a seemingly never-ending string of problems.

When Elisabeth, a woman of faith, host of a radio show on a Catholic radio station, devoted to her family and the suffering of the world, is confronted with the pedophilia of priests and the suicide of her son, belief gives way to rage and to violence.
