A documentary about the last "greenhouse growers" still active in Flemish Brabant, who passionately cultivate grapes in greenhouses. It traces the slow disappearance of greenhouses in the Druivenstreek, the region that straddles the linguistic border from Tervuren to La Hulpe via Overijse, Hoeilaart and Huldenberg. The opening of the borders of the common market in 1962 brutally cut the market shares of Belgian table grapes. The oil crisis of the seventies dealt the sector the final blow because of the high cost of heating greenhouses. From 35,000 greenhouses, the number has fallen to less than 300 today.
