Summary: In this darkly comedic action drama, Jean-Claude Van Damme plays a fictionalized version of himself. Down on his luck, with his career and personal life in decline, he returns to his native Belgium seeking a fresh start. However, he becomes trapped in a post office heist and is mistaken for one of the criminals. As tensions rise, Van Damme faces not only the hostage situation but also his inner struggles with fame, aging, and identity. This unique meta-film offers a gritty, introspective take on the action star’s persona.
