Waar Wanhoop Bloeit

Waar Wanhoop Bloeit en Galgen Staan

During one day, this documentary movie carries us along the human being in the last stage of his life. Longing to gone by times, we become absorbed in a world where the clock has stopped. We see the struggle with loss, sorrow and loneliness. Insanity and death are on the doorstep. The future seems a dying comprehension.

How do we react on this as a human being? Is there resignation or do we cling to an illusion that vanishes like sand in our hands?

The film is, without being any accusation or social statement, a subjective mirror of the filmmakers. It is an effort to come to grips with the unavoidable reality and the ruthlessness of it.
