Where Are You Going? Brussels
Astonishing responses from strangers in Brussels to a simple question - Where are you going?
An interrupted journey is like a portal into somebody else鈥檚 life. Catherine Carr interrupts strangers on everyday journeys asks them where they are going. The encounters which follow reveal funny, poignant and sometimes astonishing details about the lives of others.
In cosmopolitan Brussels, she meets a multilingual Bulgarian translator who is mad about dancing and whose wife thinks he鈥檚 鈥渁 little bit weird鈥� 鈥� not least because he is openly gay. In a freezing park, we bump into a choreographer who is doing his best to help a vulnerable young Romanian man. And on the cobbled streets of the European capital, a young couple on a mini-break are starting to realise they are in love.
