In Oranje plot

Remco is 12 years old. He is a talented and fanatic footballer with only one dream: to play in the Dutch national team. He even knows the text of the Wilhelmus by heart. His father Erik is just as fanatical in coaching Remco. He always knows everything better and always comments on everything. Remco's mother Sylvia is always sweet and ensures that her 'husbands' and daughter Suzan are not short of anything. When his father suddenly dies, Remco's world collapses. He doesn't even feel like playing football anymore. His Surinamese football friend Winston asks his grandmother for help. She knows a way to get in touch with Remco's deceased father. Then Remco gets injured. The doctor never allowed him to play football again, because his ankle ligaments have been stretched very much. Together with his girlfriend Anneke, he devises a plan to participate in the selection competition. Will he be able to realize his dream?

In Orange

Reasonable film about a boy with a lot of football talent and big dreams, but who has to deal with the necessary adversity. In Oranje is mainly an exciting boys' book, and it is not realistic at all. But the dramatic plot developments are well presented and you can see Remco really struggling with the loss of his father (and injuries). This ensures that despite apparitions and other strange choices, In Oranje remains grounded.

Youth film in which the difficulty of accepting the passing of a loved one (and still integrating it into everyday life) definitely sets its foot next to the football microbe. Not without emotion.

Football fanatics will definitely have a lot more fun with it. Rightly so, certainly for those who have known the quoted glories.

Touching, traditional Dutch youth film about Remco who loses his father and gets into a disagreement with his mother about whether or not to continue playing football.

Colorful cinematography with both indoor (in the house, in the store) and outdoor scenes (on the street, on the football field and in the football stadium). Music: smooth and appropriate to the scenes. Cast: The playing is good, especially by the younger players.

Plot: Remco is on the football team of his father who is a coach. When his father suddenly ends up in the hospital and dies, Remco's world collapses. He is plagued by an injury, which means that he is no longer allowed to play football. The spirit of his deceased father supports him to keep going.

Message: eventually, after the necessary grief after the loss of loved ones, you learn to deal with it and to pick up your life again.
