LE CYCLE NOIR • 2025 • BELGIUM – 14’

Produced by DocNomads

CREW 
A film by Sébastien Willem 

SYNOPSIS 
Coal mining once plunged an entire region of Belgium into an era of prosperity. Observing these  vestiges from a silent present, the film questions less our memory than our relationship to  progress: what we inherit, what we reproduce, and what we refuse to see. Interweaving archival  images placed in perspective through a contemporary gaze, The Black Cycle sketches an open  question, suspended within the landscapes: does history repeat itself, or has it never truly  ceased?
