The general Flemish education system can no longer refuse to accept pupils who have disabilities, conditions, or handicaps and require extra care. The M-Decree obliges schools to adapt to the needs of children. This documentary observes in beautiful black and white how four children with different special needs experience going to a normal school. Inclusief is not a rushed TV report or reality series that panders to your emotions, but a carefully made, cinematic film that offers an intimate insight into the lives of four children, Rosie, Sami, Irakli and Nathan.

“In the land of the blind, I am the one-eyed king.”, says Wilfried. This country is in prison Merksplas and the blind, they are the internees. The only thing they have in common is their date of release: 31/12/9999. This film tells the story of some mentally ill criminals not being held responsible for their actions but still locked down. Without treatment and without an end date. ‘9999’ descends into the limbo of Belgium and looks some internees who are pining away in a prison, straight in the eye. The film disappears under lock and key, where time loses all common sense, and tells us of an unreal injustice. We end up in a narrow world where imagination is obliged to transcend reality and we wander through landscapes of senses of men on the edge of society.
