"While growing into one of the biggest centers of coal and steel, Charleroi in Belgium was populated by migrant workers coming from many countries. Today overgrown slag heaps and closed down steelworks remind me of the city's heyday.
Jens Olof Lasthein walks the streets to discover the power and spirit of present-day Charleroi."
