00:00:04.335 --> 00:00:06.177
Gathering in Muizen

00:00:08.783 --> 00:00:10.891
Gathering in Muizen

00:00:13.819 --> 00:00:15.616
Gathering in Muizen

00:00:18.335 --> 00:00:24.085
How do we take care of each other here in Muizen?

00:00:27.793 --> 00:00:32.926
How affordable are care homes?

00:00:48.878 --> 00:00:51.814
How do we take care of each other in Muizen?

00:00:52.546 --> 00:00:54.167
Who takes care of whom?

00:00:55.772 --> 00:01:01.887
How do we organize welfare for each other in a society where individuality is prioritized?

00:01:02.921 --> 00:01:05.837
Is the elderly care center affordable?

00:01:06.395 --> 00:01:08.524
Is there a need for a service center?

00:01:36.209 --> 00:01:40.009
our squares and public buildings are continuously cleaned

00:01:40.949 --> 00:01:42.291
by Omar and so many people

00:01:42.922 --> 00:01:44.288
sometimes we forget about that

00:01:44.837 --> 00:01:46.135
and it is taken for granted

00:01:46.135 --> 00:01:48.828
that the village hall is clean and tidy

00:01:49.726 --> 00:01:52.203
but it is actually a lot of work

00:01:52.649 --> 00:01:55.926
and there are many people who often with a high workload

00:01:55.989 --> 00:01:57.969
are cleaning those places

00:02:19.962 --> 00:02:23.083
three days a week Nicole

00:02:23.351 --> 00:02:25.532
opens the cafetaria as a volunteer

00:02:25.536 --> 00:02:27.845
of nursing home De Muze

00:02:28.918 --> 00:02:30.777
if volunteers like Nicole

00:02:30.777 --> 00:02:31.973
were not there

00:02:31.973 --> 00:02:34.645
it would be impossible for the cafetaria to be open

00:02:34.645 --> 00:02:36.077
seven by seven

00:02:36.988 --> 00:02:38.610
everything happens with a lot of laughter

00:02:38.610 --> 00:02:40.648
and sometimes with some tears

00:02:41.247 --> 00:02:43.768
she also strives for mor money for health care

00:02:44.000 --> 00:02:45.689
because with an ordinary pension

00:02:46.130 --> 00:02:49.446
you cannot pay the rent in an nursing home

00:02:49.656 --> 00:02:51.849
and that certainly shouldn't be allowed

00:03:25.811 --> 00:03:28.568
Philipina Merten or Pina

00:03:28.778 --> 00:03:30.497
was born in Muizen

00:03:30.643 --> 00:03:32.993
last century in 1916

00:03:33.759 --> 00:03:36.251
she was a pioneer for the social struggle

00:03:36.563 --> 00:03:39.144
there wasn't even the right to vote for women yet

00:03:39.608 --> 00:03:44.168
she was one of the first to think in larger structures

00:03:44.436 --> 00:03:49.025
until her eighties she was the driving force of the socialist party

00:03:49.025 --> 00:03:50.648
and the women's movement

00:03:51.181 --> 00:03:54.461
and also part of the youth movement De Rode Valken

00:03:54.841 --> 00:03:57.247
Pina made a very large pot of soup

00:03:57.452 --> 00:03:59.837
and scooped out the soup with a ladle

00:04:00.198 --> 00:04:02.699
for the children whom lived in poverty

00:04:02.810 --> 00:04:05.410
hence the reference to her earrings

00:04:24.241 --> 00:04:26.585
Lily grew up in West-Flanders

00:04:26.699 --> 00:04:28.541
but has lived here for many years

00:04:29.301 --> 00:04:33.240
every morning at 9 a.m. she leaves her home

00:04:33.588 --> 00:04:35.685
to open the door of the church

00:04:37.182 --> 00:04:40.333
and the key from the Rerum is also in her pockets

00:04:41.435 --> 00:04:43.134
she's very often on the road

00:04:43.312 --> 00:04:45.096
working from early till late

00:04:45.757 --> 00:04:48.058
when you say she does a lot

00:04:48.486 --> 00:04:50.081
that's actually too little

00:04:51.496 --> 00:04:53.166
we wonder

00:04:53.319 --> 00:04:55.248
who is going to do all that work in the future

00:05:30.780 --> 00:05:33.332
every morning and every afternoon

00:05:33.332 --> 00:05:37.487
you'll find Jean-Marie at the beginnen of Peter Benoitstreet

00:05:38.505 --> 00:05:40.567
wearing a fluorescent jacket

00:05:40.687 --> 00:05:42.092
and in all weathers

00:05:42.165 --> 00:05:44.999
he makes sure that all the schoolchildren

00:05:45.819 --> 00:05:48.069
including parents and grandparents

00:05:48.069 --> 00:05:50.286
can cross the street safely

00:05:51.360 --> 00:05:52.498
not only this

00:05:52.776 --> 00:05:54.255
but also, together with Ingrid

00:05:54.266 --> 00:05:56.515
he's very active in organizing things

00:05:57.336 --> 00:06:00.284
such as flea markets and bingo evenings

00:06:00.456 --> 00:06:02.647
under the name Muizen Nodigt Uit

00:06:03.479 --> 00:06:08.317
all things to bring people closer together

00:06:10.296 --> 00:06:13.279
"if there is anything, just call me" he says

00:06:32.413 --> 00:06:34.750
Fons De Cock and a few others

00:06:35.280 --> 00:06:40.722
was the founder and inspirer of Red Cross Muizen in 1972

00:06:41.251 --> 00:06:43.922
he was always busy helping people

00:06:44.408 --> 00:06:47.011
working together was his motto

00:06:47.568 --> 00:06:50.247
once on his own responsibility

00:06:50.428 --> 00:06:54.133
he took home someone who had been in an institution for 40 years

00:06:54.772 --> 00:06:57.245
he died in 1999

00:06:57.460 --> 00:07:00.125
and by the Charlemagne festivities in 2000

00:07:00.463 --> 00:07:03.647
he was chosen by the people of Muizen as a giant

00:07:24.802 --> 00:07:25.901
be assured

00:07:26.510 --> 00:07:27.982
that syringe you see there

00:07:27.982 --> 00:07:29.935
has nothing to do with corona

00:07:29.935 --> 00:07:31.867
or a new campaign against vaccinations

00:07:32.865 --> 00:07:37.771
it's just about the nursing home Muizen, De Muze, excuse me

00:07:38.630 --> 00:07:43.932
and Deborah has been making the ward for people with dementia for 5 years as teamleader

00:07:44.835 --> 00:07:47.132
when there's not enough people she jumps in

00:07:47.659 --> 00:07:49.493
and every morning she comes in

00:07:49.912 --> 00:07:52.395
and first she checks with the team if everything is going well

00:07:52.941 --> 00:07:55.662
then she drinks the inevitable cup of coffee

00:08:14.581 --> 00:08:18.539
4 times a month she opens the doors of our Dorpshuis

00:08:18.956 --> 00:08:20.114
for the book exchange

00:08:21.442 --> 00:08:24.501
but it is more than just an exchange-library

00:08:24.880 --> 00:08:26.367
it is also a meeting place

00:08:27.002 --> 00:08:30.208
Hilde is also fascinated by archeology

00:08:30.449 --> 00:08:34.086
she has an impressive collection of clay pipes

00:08:34.808 --> 00:08:37.955
and she collected several folders filled with information

00:08:38.461 --> 00:08:40.538
about the history of Muizen

00:08:41.365 --> 00:08:45.473
she is always ready to shere her knowledge about this

00:09:11.988 --> 00:09:14.303
Somsak is the head monk

00:09:14.425 --> 00:09:17.848
of the Wat Dhammapateep temple

00:09:18.313 --> 00:09:21.673
you always receive tea and something to snack on

00:09:22.676 --> 00:09:25.574
or during midday something to eat

00:09:25.977 --> 00:09:28.289
you can also meditate there weekly

00:09:29.165 --> 00:09:34.076
the buddhist meditation brings us more in contact with the body

00:09:34.756 --> 00:09:38.299
in our western culture we are very much above the eyebrows

00:09:38.795 --> 00:09:39.996
with our attention

00:09:39.996 --> 00:09:42.813
and therefore we need this more and more

00:10:01.887 --> 00:10:05.210
gardener Dirk drives weekly with Frida to the store

00:10:05.726 --> 00:10:08.966
because Frida can't cross "the mountain" anymore

00:10:09.469 --> 00:10:12.211
Dirk helps her with the weekly shopping

00:10:12.731 --> 00:10:16.167
every saturday they drive together in the car to Delhaize

00:10:16.167 --> 00:10:17.607
on the Leuvensesteenweg

00:10:39.651 --> 00:10:41.569
for several centuries

00:10:42.362 --> 00:10:46.886
there was a Cistercian convent in Muizen

00:10:46.886 --> 00:10:49.283
where passers-by were welcome

00:10:50.316 --> 00:10:53.050
though the nuns of Muizen weren't rich

00:10:53.351 --> 00:10:56.798


00:10:57.137 --> 00:10:59.326


00:11:00.004 --> 00:11:01.737


00:11:02.048 --> 00:11:04.726


00:11:05.299 --> 00:11:08.411


00:11:09.405 --> 00:11:12.009


00:11:12.219 --> 00:11:13.839


00:11:13.839 --> 00:11:16.940


00:11:30.865 --> 00:11:35.424


00:11:35.519 --> 00:11:37.655


00:11:38.778 --> 00:11:41.008


00:11:41.372 --> 00:11:42.812


00:11:42.812 --> 00:11:44.254


00:11:44.788 --> 00:11:46.088


00:11:46.651 --> 00:11:49.179


00:11:49.293 --> 00:11:51.041


00:11:51.738 --> 00:11:53.845


00:11:54.285 --> 00:11:56.356


00:11:56.941 --> 00:11:59.414


00:11:59.704 --> 00:12:03.726


00:12:04.015 --> 00:12:05.447


00:12:05.732 --> 00:12:10.168


00:12:10.403 --> 00:12:16.174


00:12:20.199 --> 00:12:22.007


00:12:23.162 --> 00:12:25.234


00:12:25.750 --> 00:12:27.244


00:12:27.626 --> 00:12:29.464


00:12:31.417 --> 00:12:34.586


00:12:34.975 --> 00:12:37.984
