Koning van de Zwervers plot

When Meissy's (11) father reappears in their town after years of absence, she is immediately overjoyed. Against her mother's wishes, she secretly seeks him out and is enchanted by his colorful life on the streets, full of fantasy, origami cranes and special encounters. But then she discovers what her mother had been trying to warn her about: her father is schizophrenic and suffers from hallucinations and delusions of grandeur.

Eleven-year-old Meissy [Niyara De Rocha Pereira] is over the moon when her father Tom [Matthijs Van De Sande Bakhuyzen] returns to her life after five years. Her mother Lucy [Yootah Wong-Loi-Sing] told Meissy that her father was a world traveler, but still refuses to take Tom in. Meissy doesn't understand this and regularly meets up secretly with her wandering father. Eventually, she discovers what is really going on with her father. Heavy, complex material has been made palatable for children by simplifying psychological issues and their treatment. The acting, however, is nothing to write home about.
