    Storyline

    Edit
    De Patrick is a family drama about people's peculiarities, about letting go and being happy with who you are: 39-year-old Patrick lives with his parents on a naturist campsite. When his domineering father Rudy dies he finds himself in charge of the campsite, however he has other things on his mind. He has lost his favorite hammer. The long term camp guests want him to get a grip on his life, but he is determined to find his hammer. His search becomes an existential quest. —Bart Van Langendonck

    De Patrick, where is it about....
    "De Patrick" After watching this movie people question "is it a Drama or a Comedy"? Others Question if its about "dealing with the loss of his father" or "Trying to find his hammer", or is the search for the Hammer the way he deals with his fathers death.

    What i think? I think that many times it's not about where your coming from or where your going to, but about what the travel brought you. So i think that the director wanted us to struggle with that question to keep us interested and wandering, and he succeeded.
