April, May en June

I heard Olga Zuiderhoek speak of this movie in a talk show. Weeks later I stumbled upon this on Netflix and was hooked from the first scene with the three (half) sisters and their brother. Great plot, nice texts and the best of Dutch acting at work. Very recognisable family scenes (the little brat, the over-protective mother), although mine are (luckily) less complicated, so far. Then again, it all worked out well. I laughed out loud a lot, and truthfully, shed a small tear as well. A very Dutch movie in the beste sense of the word(s): blunt, in your face, true to life, and death. The end was quick, bringing all the story lines to a good end. I really enjoyed this.
