Cinema version of the five‑part TV series. During World War II, Stan Vandewalle rescues boxing trainer Max from a bombed German POW camp and shoots two German soldiers while escaping. After the war, haunted by the death of his slow‑witted brother Aloïs—who had dreamed of becoming an opera singer—Stan vows to channel his grief by fulfilling his brother’s other wish: to see him become “king of the world” as a boxer, even using his side‑car to race a farmer’s truck in pursuit of that dream.
