As Groningen City being just a square mile in this vast piece of land in the Top of Holland, it's just a small token of respect of the country side to celebrate in "the city". See more »
Fokke Augustinus was born in the Top of Holland but is working as a psychiatrist in prison in the West of the Netherlands. As his dad dies in Groningen, where there is plenty of space, hardly anybody living and -above all- hardly any mobile phone connection (running gag), he inherits the farm. He decides to go and have a look and -even more- stay there and starts to get things running in the Dutch outback...
And with it comes another story where he will be a would-be killer, drug dealer and most of all a spin doctor using growing pot as a financial boost. In ten episodes his life is changed completely as well as the life of his oldest son. His wife did change her attitude towards their relation. He has another job from now on and he has his influence on the development of the area (does he?).
Doing illegal things attracts weird people, although the weirdest of them all follows him from his previous employment.
Expect the unexpected. Don't fear, but embrace the worst! As mentioned earlier: it's a kind of Dutch "Breaking Bad", but on a more down to earth budget en really funny Dutch pedestal.
