Jan Arendsz

The magical epos of Friesland's biggest hero.

On the turn of the 20th century, in Netherlands, three socialist activists and brothers are imprisoned for a crime they didn't commit. The prosecutor tries to get to the truth, but their comrades and others betray them.

Fully dedicated Gjalt (68) takes care of his wife Anke (67) who suffers from an aggressive form of dementia that is accompanied by delusions, fear visions and personality change. Gjalt makes every effort to alleviate Ankes suffering at the isolated situated farm in the desolated Frisian landscape. With the final farewell nearby, Gjalt's love for Anke feels stronger than ever before.
