1888: a luthier, Vedder (Gijs Scholten van Aschat), has to step aside when his home, opposite the recently completed Central Station in Amsterdam, must yield for the planned Victoria Hotel. His cousin Anijs (Jacob Derwig), pharmacist in the Northern provinces of the Netherlands, has gotten into a fix after illegal medical practices, and is looking for a way out. For himself and his wife Martha (Rifka Lodeizen), but also for a colony of poor peat cutters whom he promises a future in the United States. Committed - or is it pride? - the two of them think up a scheme from which they all will fully benefit. With tragic consequences.

影片是同志题材片, 被荷兰选送到美国参加Oscar最佳外语片的评选….
观众评论
随便拖的电影,本打算消遣的.没想到出乎意料,是部不错的电影.
这片子似乎非常偏,网上连个英文简介也找不到.片子是关于安乐死,但与<深海长眠>似的不同,它没准备对安乐死本身进行什么探讨.这片子的一切背景设置都很淡,安乐死或者同性恋其实都有点无关紧要.反正我的观影感觉是象是唠家常,却又有莫名奇妙的忧郁.毕竟有关生死.
不过这片子其实算是喜剧一类,台词中穿插不少笑话.看网上有评价说这片子的笑话很本土化,非荷兰人估计不能完全理解.对于喜剧,这是件好事.
