One of them will be the documentary Miguel About Circle Brugge goalkeeper Miguel Van Dam, who has been treated for leukemia since 2016. After his diagnosis, a period of recovery, relapse, recovery and relapse follows. ‘How much misfortune can you have? Sometimes you just can’t understand it. I’ve been through a lot in my life: I’ve been sick for five years, and my career hasn’t helped me much. Maintaining hope is very difficult, because there is nothing left. They used everything to save me: chemotherapy, radiation, you name it,” he says.
