The film is the result of an attempt to introduce children from a poor area of Brussels to the medium of video. Five children become Super Heroes in front of the camera. Their body-language suggests how much they have unconsciously acquired the grammar of the music video. The aggressive sexism of a song like 'Smack my bitch up' (the Prodigy) is thus revealed in play.
