Bikkel plot

Bart de Graaff passed away on May 25, 2002 at the age of 35. In that short life he managed to achieve a lot, but he also took the blood from under the nails of some. What seemed to start as a joke in 1996 in the Veronica program Bart's News Network, soon turned out to be hard reality: Bart started his own broadcaster BNN. In Bikkel Bart addresses the viewer directly. In a special audio track composed of all the interviews he ever gave, Bart talks about his life. How his chronic kidney disease kept him in the hospital every time and made a normal career in his father's business impossible. But also how he managed to overcome these setbacks with his humor and unprecedented perseverance. In addition, the people who lived with and for Bart have their say: his mother Marjan, his sister Mirjam, but also his great love Valerie.
