How to inspire the nation that overtook Iraq to hold the world record for being a country without a government? In a bid to do ‘something fun and crazy to unite Belgians’, a group of local artists gathered ‘upcoming Belgian talent, Belgian dancers, a Belgian film crew, Belgian stylists, make-up artists and photographers’ to shoot a video (which you can watch on youtube here as you need to be over eighteen). ‘Map of Belgium’ should be a sign to the world that ‘actually, there’s great stuff happening in Belgium’.
