Italie 1948. Rocco, 10 ans, grandit dans un charmant - mais pauvre - village de montagne en Calabre. Jusqu'au jour où, Salvatore son père, décide d'aller chercher ailleurs un avenir meilleur pour sa famille. Il part pour la terre promise, la Belgique, car là, en peu de temps, il y a moyen de gagner beaucoup d'argent en travaillant dans les mines de charbon. Et ensuite, retourner au pays natal. Mais, très vite, il fait venir sa famille à Waterschei. Le jeune Rocco est propulsé au rang d'émigré avec toutes les conséquences que cela implique. La triste région des mines du Limbourg, les hivers glaciaux, le racisme, la langue et la culture étrangère mettent un frein à la joie de vivre du petit garçon. Rocco veut, comme les autres enfants, devenir quelqu’un et faire quelque chose de sa vie. Il cherche, contre l’avis de son père, sa voie dans la musique et l’amour et écoute les battements de son coeur pour réaliser son rêve.

Disco was a pop music program that aired in Germany on the ZDF network from 1971 to 1982. It generally aired on the first Saturday of each month at 7:30PM, each show running 45 minutes. 133 shows were produced. The show was hosted by German actor and comedian Ilja Richter. Its lesser known predecessor on ZDF, 4-3-2-1 Hot & Sweet was aired between 1966 and 1970, presenters included Ilja Richter and Suzanne Doucet. Disco generally served a younger pop-oriented audience compared to ZDF's Hitparade, and until 1972, its main competitor was Beat-Club, followed by Musikladen, both on ARD. Repeats of Disco have been aired since 1984 on ZDF Musikkanal, after its closedown in 1989 on 3sat. Since 2004, the digital ZDF Theaterkanal aired repeats of the entire series. In 2007, ZDF Dokukanal began to air reruns, starting with episodes from 1975 and also multiple repeats of the series have been shown on hit24 in 2008. The show focussed on chart hits current at the time of airing, giving about equal airtime to international pop music and German Schlager. Despite its name, it did not particularly focus on disco music although it featured many disco hits as long as they were chart relevant..

Eurosong was the Flemish selection for the Eurovision Song Contest. It selected the Belgian entry to the Contest every second year. The last Eurosong was in 2008. Due the good result of Tom Dice in 2010, who was chosen internally, the VRT decided to cancel Eurosong.
