A film about life. About relations between brothers. About the long trip defining each of them. About love, building a house as metaphor of self definition. Beautiful cinematography, good dialogues. And nothing more. The poetry of feelings and emotion was too, too often used. The desire to explore the deepest aspects of relation remains a good intention. The poetry of small things and details is familiar. The result - good performances, nice story, correct film. For a part of public is enough. For other, the beach scenes, the landscapes, the travel itself are the gifts. Or just presence of Jonas Smulders or - and Niels Gomperts. But, not ignoring the virtues of film, the story has not roots. It is convincing. Only beautiful.

Dutch cinema often combines understated realism with offbeat humor, tackling moral ambiguity and social change. It balances intimate storytelling with bold, sometimes provocative, visual styles. Dutch films combine art-house sensibility with grounded storytelling, reflecting the country's open, yet quietly complex culture.

The adventure genre features exciting journeys, quests, or expeditions undertaken by characters who often face challenges, obstacles, and risks in pursuit of a goal. Adventures can take place in a wide range of settings, from exotic and fantastical locations to historical or even everyday environments.

The drama genre is a broad category that features stories portraying human experiences, emotions, conflicts, and relationships in a realistic and emotionally impactful way. Dramas delve into the complexities of human life, often exploring themes of love, loss, morality, societal issues, personal growth, with the aim to evoke an emotional response from the audience by presenting relatable and thought-provoking stories.
