De Vader

Looking out for one another, as the Bible calls it. And actually, you agree. So in the tail end of the year, you try to do the right thing after all. Pay more attention to others. And to what really matters. Your family, your friends, your dog, for example. It’s nice that Christmas reminds you of that after all. Because it’s very good that we keep an eye on one another. That we lend a hand to those who need it.

We could hardly have found a more Christmassy theme for our heartwarming winter performance.

But honestly… sometimes it can also be very disappointing. Caring for someone else can also become your own worry. And then you’re stuck with those good intentions. Because you don’t let a loved one down, do you?

In De Vader, we see how widower André gradually loses just about everything. His confusion goes from bad to worse. Fortunately, his daughter arranges his care. That way, he can live as independently as possible. But André is not the easiest person. And just try explaining that to him!
