Belgica is the story of two brothers: charismatic and temperamental Frank - a husband, father, and an incurable womanizer - and his ambitious-but-green, one-eyed younger brother Jo, who owns a dive bar called Belgica. When Frank helps Belgica become the place to be for great music, beautiful people, and debauched fun, the brothers become business partners to expand the bar. Belgica quickly becomes bigger and better, and the brothers seem to have discovered the formula for success - until they learn that running a business on this scale is more complicated than they realized, and their relationship and personal lives suffer.
