Synopsis

Spoiler shield

Jo, a former American G.I., settled down in Welkenraedt, a small Belgian town, as a butcher. He married Tina, a girl he had met in Belgium and who now works with him in their shop. She has given him two sons, Armand, who besides being an amateur boxing champ, is employed by his parents as a butcher, and Henri, who dreams of becoming a filmmaker and who is now busy filming a documentary about Armand. 'Souvenir of Gibraltar" is the amused chronicle of this oddball family.
