Bite the bullet

Partner: Wallonie Bruxelles Images   |   La Cambre

In Belgium, “to bite the bullet” (“mordre sur sa chique” in belgian french) means to restrain your emotions while going through hardships. Zéno tries to express a pain from which he can only escape when he’s dancing with his dog. An intimate waltz inside a typical picture of Wallonia.
