This movie was a real gem. I expected it to be a typical Flemish movie filled with cheap laughs, instead it's a visually impressive masterpiece with some laughs, some tears, and a very moving story about loss. It is also beautifully shot and well acted (except for Hannah Hoekstra, a Dutch actress who for some reason is trying to pass off a horrible Flemish accent). I disliked Kevin Janssens before this movie, but since seeing him in De Patrick he has become one of my favourite actors, and I respect him for being brave enough to take on the role. This movie has become on of my favourite movies, and I think Tim Mielants is one of Belgium's most talented moviemakers.
