Looking for Colonel Parker plot

He was not yet twenty years old when he left the Netherlands for America. Without education, without money and without command of the English language. Twenty-five years later, he is Elvis Presley's celebrated and feared manager, and the world knows him as Colonel Tom Parker. It will be another twenty years before his secret past is revealed. Then it turns out that he is not an orphan from a remote town in the United States, but Andreas Cornelis van Kuijk, who was born in Breda on 28 June 1909. In this documentary, Constant Meijers, fascinated by the fact that a Dutchman stood at the cradle of rock and roll, follows the life course of an ambitious and brutal Dutch boy who arrived in the United States in the late 1920s without papers.
