Remember Marvin Gaye
In 1981, Marvin Gaye, the all time champion of soul music, took refuge in Ostend, a little town located on the Belgian coast. Marvin’s choice to lay anchor in Ostend was totally unexpected, not to say incredible. Twenty years after the making of a first 29 minute film entitled “Marvin Gaye Transit Ostend”, I decided to make this second documentary film. It’s my way of bringing to life the picture Marvin Gaye dedicated to me:

Documentary on Marvin Gaye made during his stay in Belgium, Ostende
The ends of the earth where madness and absurdity rub shoulders with everyday life in a place called Marchienne-au-Pont, formerly an inland water shipping heartland where the best steel in the world was made.
