Amusing and intriguing till the end., 13 March 2000
Author: Draughtsman from Netherlands

This film is a must-see for the fans of the stageshows of Freek de Jonge. The film contains scenes, which are very amusing, and some are quite surrealistic. What strikes me about this film is that there's no dialog at all, and so this standup-comedian has to keep the film going on visual only. In this he clearly succeeded and it makes the film intriguing till the end.
