And then he came very close

What are you laughing at?

What's that?

Gertie's going out

with a soldier

This is a farewell present

Mind your own business, Elly

Little girls have big ears

Farewell present?

Get out of the way

Are you ok?

Are you hurt?

Walt...

My photo

What have you done with it?

Bloody boy

you're a bike-thief

And now it's broken too

then Moses stretched his hand

over the sea

the waves parted

And Israelites were able to cross

but when Pharaoh's army

followed

the waves came together again

and drowned them

Wake up, Jeroen

A letter from your mother

Maybe she'll come

and visit you

There you are

Read it out, boy

we're so curious to know

Jeroen darling

how big you are

You look so well

I missed you so

I'll never let you go again

You should know

I'm off to America

Can I open it, Mrs.?

It's for you

It's almost 300 years old

folks, look here

Nice, isn't it?

What a nice watch

Your tea, madam

He has grown a lot, hasn't he?

We're very grateful to you

It's nothing

It was just our duty

This beautiful present

It reconciles us

to the farewell

Jeroen has become like

our own child

And now we have to hurry

otherwise you'll miss the boat

Yes, it's a long journey ahead

I'll pack his things

He won't fit into this anymore

I know

that's why I put these in

He lived in these pants

Military thread

He learnt them at school

A souvenir

Isn't that nice?

I found these things here

They belonged to

one of the Canadian soldiers

Maybe you could take them

for Jeroen

For later, we don't use

this kind of thing

Amsterdam. Here we go

I love you

Come on, Jeroen

We have to hurry up

Bye

Jeroen

will you send us a photo?

You were going to ask me

something

That photo

I didn't hear Dad ask for that

Yes, I did

I heard

but I wanted to forget it

It was the only photo on the

whole roll that came out

Forget the step...

Use your basis of energy

Use your personal energy

Think of... let I told you

Think the freedom, It's all up

Ok, you mark this

Make me happy

Alright?

Let I see

who's the new generation

Done it

And you both...

Just rehearsal

Alright, you concentrate

Here we go

The end
