At Canneseries, fiction and non-fiction projects hail from all corners of the globe. And, as Flanders features a strong TV drama industry, so it is the case with non-fiction and documentary series. 

For more than three decades, Luc Gommers has been at the heart of Flanders’ major public broadcaster, VRT. After starting his journey first in the archives, then as a sport and news producer, he found his home at Canvas, VRT’s second main channel focusing on culture, in-depth news, arthouse films, occasionally sports, and non-fiction.
