Mama, Mag Ik naar Huis Toe? plot

What's it like to be a mother, but your child isn't allowed to grow up with you? In this documentary, six mothers share their vulnerable stories about their children's removal from home. They discuss the void it leaves behind, the guilt and shame that haunt them, and the fear of losing their bond with their child forever.

Six mothers explain how and why their children were removed from their homes and ended up with foster families. A word of caution for language purists: their Dutch leaves much to be desired. There's also a mother who can't get a conversation partner to finish a sentence without saying "yes, yes" or "no, no." This doesn't diminish the courage these women demonstrate by speaking openly about their past, while also not shying away from examining themselves critically. The central message isn't exactly eye-opening, and the manipulative, tear-jerking score is disturbing.
