When the life of Jean-Claude Van Damme collides with the reality of a holdup in Brussels, Belgium, his childhood home where he’s still considered a national icon, suddenly the huge movie star turns into an ordinary guy, filled with fears, contradictions and hopes. How can he be up to the legend he has built? What can a film hero do when the gun pointed to his temple isn’t charged with blanks?
