This Dutch drama explores family dynamics and personal growth through the story of Foekje, who returns to her childhood home with her soon-to-be ex-husband, Evert.
The film excels in character development, showcasing the complex relationships between Foekje, her mother Nel and Evert. The performances are outstanding, with Beuger delivering a raw and authentic portrayal of a woman confronting her past.
Symbolism, particularly around water and doomsday prepper themes, enriches the narrative, reflecting the characters' emotional struggles.
I highly recommend this movie and I am also proud that Dutch cinema can contribute to a higher standard.
