Finally a Dutch film with a fresh, original angle. Not a predictable romantic comedy or a picture related to the Second World War, but a contemporary, realistic drama. Perhaps not quite perfect and certainly not intended for the masses, but a culture clash between the down-to-earth Dutch Lin and a rowdy, crime-prone Romanian teenager that is well worth the effort. Appearing with integrity and authenticity, the relationship between the adult, apparently self-confident woman (with as it turns out, an unprocessed trauma) and an unstable teenager from a foreign country with a hopeless existence is sharply elaborated by a director unknown to me, who immediately makes a solid business card. issues. Thanks also to the strong playing Kraakman and Iancu (a natural talent). Too bad about the weak, unsatisfying ending. You have the feeling that the whole story has not been told yet, saves half a star.

The plot (a mother without a child and a child without a mother) of this Dutch Drama film feels a bit constructed, but those who can go along with it are rewarded with an exciting, uncomfortable and compelling film experience, which is alternately raw (including the living conditions of the Romanian boy Nicu in Bucharest and also how he gets money) and is tender. The camera work, the music and both protagonists are simply good and especially leading actress Maria Kraakman is a nice actress to watch.

Well made, although the plot itself is very far-fetched. But maybe you shouldn't take it too literally either.
