When a despised town bailiff is discovered with a knife through his heart, a young lawyer who had just visited the victim becomes the main suspect. Now, with the police asking questions, the barrister is ready to tell the story of a lifetime. Based on the popular classic Dutch novel, this powerful drama details a timeless rift between a despised patriarch and his illegitimate son - a struggle even the father knows the son is destined to win. Stunning visuals and outstanding performances deliver us deep into the heart of a Dickensian world that is austere and cruel yet full of passion, and take us closer to the limits of the human will.
