“Strip-tease”, a searching journal of Belgian reality. Gustavien and Khalifa Everybody knows that red-haired people smell, that Italians steal, Spaniards are proud, Jews are avaricious, antique dealers are queers and that the RTBF is left-wing... Besides, it is quite well known that a marriage between and Arab man and Belgian woman must fail. So in order to tease its audience a little bit more, “Strip- tease” has discovered Gustavine (76 years old), a good Christian Belgian who for 35 years has lived with Khalifa (60 years old). He is a good Arab and a devout Moslem. Black eye Stanislas arrived in Belgium from his native Africa a year ago.
