What are books really about?

About love and all that.

But you're still too young for that.

All important books... are about God.

It's about God and love.

Who ever reads a book here?

You.

So who knows what the books are about?

You or me?

Mom reads cookbooks.

On Sunday.

Thomas, come.

I saw a sword tail in the pit.

Your boy.

Childhood hallucination.

You're as dumb as an onion anyway.

He swims with us.

Thomas, don't lie.

Oh.

I loved Lotje, I think.

Hello, Aunt Pie.

Are you OK?

Sweet boy.

Oh.

Oh.

As children.

Yeah.

You want it warm enough.

Like this.

Pastel.

You will see

Good Lord, save us miserable sinners.

Good Lord, save us miserable sinners.

we are not worthy to be your children.

Good Lord, forgive us miserable Sundays.

Good Lord, forgive us miserable Sundays.

The Lord be with you.

The Lord be with you.

Your son has a sense of humor.

He often surprises me at home with his jokes.

¿Ey?

The Lord be with you.

The Lord be with you.

The Lord be with you.

The Lord be with you.

And with you.

Thomas, come here.

Because?

Because I said so.

Ah, that's why.

Will you sing again what you just sang in church?

Just watch and sing.

I'm going to practice with him, Abel.

He doesn't do it on purpose.

I'm talking to your son.

He is only nine years old.

Grab the spoon and wait for me.

Everything is gone.

Nothing exists anymore.

Me neither.

Everything is gone.

Nothing exists anymore.

Me neither.

Everything is gone.

Good God, tell me.

Good Lord.

Deliver us, miserable sinners.

Deliver us, miserable sinners.

Now you say that phrase a hundred times, as it should be.

And then you go down.

Please, God.

Then please, you must exist.

And then you can punish my father.

Please, God.

Could you still exist?

Do you hear me?

And then you can punish my father.

Is it there?

Mr. Thomas.

If you exist, can you help me?

I would like to talk to you personally.

Please, God.

Could you still exist?

Then you can punish my father.

Because he hit mommy.

Don't forgive him.

Never forgive him.

Ah, that Thomas.

Even when they were children?

No.

So what is it?

I shouldn't hit mommy.

¿OMS?

Do you know who?

Almighty God.

Was it taken from Lotje?

It's not the first time.

And I'll say it honestly.

We're not much use to you either.

Well, what will we get now?

Surely I have redeemed humanity?

What then?

Hey, I'd like to talk to your father.

Can I go?

I

wants to explain.

Do you know where God is?

We're all waiting for that.

Tomorrow.

You've been doing this for 2,000 years.

I've had enough.

People are counting on you.

God!

God!

Wow, that's it!

Wow, that's it!

Sorry Jesus, he's a little busy.

Back.

Now.

Untie me.

He is very busy.

He has nothing.

But I will say that you have been Thomas.

Yes, it really is a pleasure to have you there.

Better luck next time.

Yeah.

Oh God, this is so sweet.

I really can't believe we're just here.

Hey, beautiful eyes.

Help us!

Batch.

It seems to be still otherwise I can't draw you.

My leather leg.

It creaks.

Do you want to touch it?

There are tropical fish swimming there.

Yeah.

People throw them down the toilet.

When they go on vacation.

By the way, crocodiles also live in sewers.

Have you seen them yourself?

A.

Reducers with Pink.

In the bathroom.

And you shouldn't try to grab them.

Then you are missing four fingers.

What is your name?

Thomas.

I, Elisha.

And God said to Moses, Go to Pharaoh and tell him to let my people go.

But the disobedient Pharaoh refuses to listen.

And the tower of God awakens.

Ten plagues.

Harass the people of Egypt.

Frogs.

Invade the houses.

And crawling on the beds.

And God turns the water in the river into blood.

And all the fish die.

The fish can't help but think that Pharaoh is bad.

But Pharaoh...

Why do fish have to die?

He is a stubborn man.

A proud and simple person.

He thinks he knows everything.

The Pharaoh full of heart in his bravery.

And he refuses to listen to the word of God.

God changes the water of the river.

And all the fish die.

Don't you have anything better to do?

Are you better?

Are you better?

Oh, good now.

This is how labor ends.

This is how labor ends.

This is how labor ends.

Yeah.

Well done.

Well done, dog.

And now home.

Should I use them?

That's very kind of you.

It's not heavy for your taste.

You are already so strong.

Put me in the kitchen.

Could I please have a glass of jaranja, Tomás?

Yes, let's go.

How do you know my name?

Grab that chair.

Put those magazines aside.

I'm so glad you're here.

Or are we not allowed to say that?

Curse.

Damn.

Damn, nothing.

Yes, simply diabolical.

My children left home a long time ago.

And my husband...

Oh, of course you don't know.

They fused my husband.

Shot to death with firearms.

Oh.

Don't be sad.

I will let you know.

Beautiful, isn't it?

Beto.

When I hear this.

Elysium!

Hello!

Hello!

Hahaha.

Hahaha.

Hahaha.

Hahaha.

How many things does he have?

All broken.

What are all those books about?

Sky.

They go...

about everything there is.

Do you like to read?

What do you really want to be when you grow up?

Happy.

I will be happy later.

That's a very good idea.

Do you know how happiness begins?

Without being afraid anymore.

This book is about a boy who doesn't want to be afraid...

and fight against injustice in the world.

Hello ma'am.

And thank you.

It's okay kid.

Will you not be afraid anymore?

No.

At least not for witches.

RISA

What did you do to me?

I'm not saying that.

What's it like in there?

Say?

Otherwise.

It's different.

So what?

All broken.

All broken.

Thomas.

Just take this.

But make sure you come up with that doctor's fees first.

Yeah?

Yeah.

I'm really looking forward to starting to play now.

Where have you been?

Beside.

With Mrs. van Amersfoort?

I helped with the shopping.

How sweet of you.

I'd rather not have you there.

Why not?

That woman is a communist.

When the Russians come, she will stay on the street cheering.

And we Christians all go to slavery.

Still.

Abel.

Thomas returns.

What do you have in your hand?

Let's see.

Emiel and his detectives.

Erich Kerstner.

You bring it back.

And you will never go back in there.

Do you hear me?

Mrs. van Amersfoort's husband.

He gave his life.

For our freedom.

And Mrs. van Amersfoort also saved many people.

In the war.

I will always let you go to the goal.

But Dad said to do it. I'm sure he doesn't realize it.

Mother.

Are you happy?

You make me happy.

My little hero.

It's easy to say when you're an ex.

Dear Elisa.

You may think you are not beautiful.

Because you have a leather leg.

That creaks when you walk.

but you are the most beautiful girl in the whole world.

I think one day you'll make him live quietly in a closet.

With a Rolls Royce in front of the door.

I'm not writing this because I want to be your boyfriend.

I know that's not possible.

I...

Ben...

Only... Nine.

I'm writing this...

Why...

Stupid Thomas.

What a loser.

Curse.

Curse.

Damn.

Ey.

In fact, things are going well.

Dreamer.

I'm writing this because it's... true.

Beautiful.

Mmm... Dear Elisa.

You may think you are not beautiful.

because you have a leg that creaks when you walk.

¡No!

Estimated.

Do.

Estimated.

Estimated.

Spree.

But.

That's mine.

Here.

Send it to the roll.

Girls love cards.

But let's suppose... that you are afraid.

Then you shouldn't accept it.

Ey.

Be brave.

Can you practice?

Well, I complain.

All the sketches?

No kiss for your old aunt?

Hello Aunt Pie.

You're a wonderful boy, aren't you?

Oh dear.

What a stupid mission.

Do I have that again?

To play.

Ey.

Goodbye hug.

Hello Aunt Pie.

Emiel pinned the money to the inside of his jacket.

With safety pin.

Then he feared that the criminals would steal his money.

Oh yeah.

Smart huh.

That spells it.

Nothing can go wrong now, he thought.

Except your coat might never be washed again.

There is something to laugh about.

I brought herring.

Tasty.

Tasty.

I said it's okay Abel.

Bring this book back immediately, Thomas.

Yes dad.

Did you tell my son that he doesn't have to obey me?

How do you keep it in your head?

It's just a children's book, Abel.

He can't stop me.

I still go there.

Thomas please.

Be careful.

Come.

And God spoke to Moses.

Go back to Faro and tell him to let my people go.

If you don't, I'll infest the whole area with frogs.

The Nile will be full of them.

Amen.

Delicious herring.

I really love it.

Delicious.

Delicious porridge?

A man who beats his wife destroys himself.

Thomas.

That letter of yours.

That was truly the most beautiful letter I have ever received.

I'll keep it safe.

You are a very special boy.

Know?

When you live in my castle later, Then you can always come.

And then we'll leave together in my Rolls Royce.

Do you see Thomas?

You do something that scares you and something amazing happens.

The girls are really nice.

Yes, they say yes.

Do you think Elisa will wait for me until I'm older?

He thinks so.

A young person also has his advantages.

Is it scary if you take your leg off?

You've been through hotter fires.

The heart of the Pharaoh would not change.

And God said to Moses: Strike the water with your staff...

and then the water of the Nile will turn to blood.

And so it happened.

The fish died and began to stink.

So how does God change Pharaoh's heart?

I think that's a very good question from you, Tomás.

It was impossible to talk to the Pharaoh.

He was a very stubborn man, the people. The Israelis did not want to let him go.

God sent plagues upon him, so that he would become gentler.

And his heart would soften.

Because of these plagues, Pharaoh saw that he had done wrong.

But...

So God showed them the way, you know?

It was impossible to talk to the Pharaoh.

He was a very stubborn man, the people. The Israelis did not want to let him go.

Tasty

food, whatever you are.

All the plagues of Egypt.

I want to ask something.

It's a strange question.

I love weird questions.

I have one myself.

Can I have Ranja?

Naturally.

I'm referring to the bottle to take home.

The whole bottle?

Mmmm.

Thank you.

Now me.

Has anyone ever hit you at home?

Thomas.

Me?

No.

This one's for you.

Precisely because you are not alone in the world.

Thank you.

Careful with that bottle, huh?

It's something strong.

All the plagues of Egypt.

Pharaoh's heart softened.

All the plagues of Egypt.

Almighty God.

Jannie.

What is it?

Come take a look.

The water has turned into blood.

We need to change the water, Thomas.

No, no, no, no.

Don't do that.

The water stays in it.

It's a miracle.

The southern wonder of Amsterdam.

This is not a joke, Margot.

Even in the time of Pharaoh there were scoffers...

which dyed the water of the Nile red.

They said, what God can do, we can do too.

Those wizards were pretty.

The devil is terribly handsome.

There may be bacteria in the water.

I think there is bacteria in this room.

A human bacteria that finds it It's funny to make fun of God's omnipotence.

Yeah.

Oh.

Trying hard, Dad.

What did I just say?

No fish is dead.

That's a good lesson for our wizard.

The fish died...

and it started to stink.

They can still be saved, Abel.

You heard me.

We gave up immediately.

I count to three.

Dad, can you help me with my geometry?

A.

Of the.

Dad.

Three.

Don't open it.

I said don't open it.

Come.

Up you.

Hurry up.

Here.

Let's go.

Ah, Senora of Amersfoort.

Can I have some sugar?

Yeah.

Yes of course.

I'll grab it for you.

We had a little accident.

Thank you.

Your wife is not there?

No, it doesn't feel good.

Oh, what's wrong with her?

Stomach complaints.

Maybe we should talk.

Talk?

Just think about it.

Thomas.

Will your mother give you a big kiss for me?

Thanks for the sugar.

Lord God, forgive me for letting my temper go.

To help your servant.

I beg you.

I beg you.

In the name of our Lord Jesus Christ.

I don't want to lose my wife and children.

Do I have to go to my room?

And waiting for you there?

Not a single young person, no.

Do you want it?

I know you want to help, Thomas.

But please don't ever do that again.

No more plague in Egypt, okay?

No mom.

Hello Thomas.

Are you OK?

Ey.

I didn't have an easy time with my father either.

He is also very strict.

I had to go to that cross, whether I wanted to or not.

Yeah.

And now he's gone.

God the father.

I can't find it anywhere in the sky, very strange.

He's been gone since that last beating of yours.

You missed him.

Well, you only have one father.

Thank you Lord Jesus.

Just say Jesus.

Mr. Thomas.

Come and see.

Do you have the photo?

No.

How is this then?

And here?

No, nothing yet.

Well.

And here?

No, Johan.

Hey, who are you?

Thomas Klopper, sir.

Ah, the neighbor across the street.

Johan Mentink.

Just say Johan.

Is this better?

No, snow.

And now?

No, not yet.

And then?

Snow.

Thomas, did you understand?

No, Mr. Mentink.

Just say Johan.

Johan, stay standing like that.

Like this?

Yes, that's right, Johan.

Stand still.

Ah, Juan.

As

Is this from my point of view?

You blush.

¿No?

That?

Who are you talking to, Thomas?

Against Jesus?

Yeah.

God is also a father.

A father bringing his only son born Jesus to the

the earth has sent to deliver us from evil.

That was the proof of their love.

When you grow up, you too will be a father and a husband, like me.

And then you have to keep your wife and children on the right path.

That is a very difficult task that God places on the shoulders of parents.

They are the head of the family.

I understand?

Yeah.

Sam, if you have any more questions, boy.

About things you can't talk to your mother about.

Men's things.

Then come to me.

That's what your father is for.

GOOD.

Thank you for coming, but you can't come in.

My mother doesn't let me do that.

And the mother's will is law.

So go back to your ditches and canals.

And thank you for your services.

Thanks for everything.

And at home.

And at home.

Good at home.

Thomas, what are you doing there?

Shhh.

Those were frogs.

Frogs?

Yeah.

But mom doesn't want that.

What doesn't mom want?

The plagues of Egypt.

How many frogs were there?

Trojans.

You have to keep your head up. Thomas.

Don't let it drive you too crazy.

Did you know...?

What does dishonored mean?

Deshonrado.

That's what...

You lose your honor.

What is honor?

Dignity.

What is dignity?

A man who beats his wife dishonors himself.

This is very true.

How do you get it?

That's a secret.

Dad has to read it.

He'll probably get angry.

Thomas, stop.

It just is.

He does drugs.

Hello neighbor.

Are you a fisherman?

Although.

Ladies.

Guppies.

The heavy vehicles had disappeared.

But these are beautiful too.

Do you want to help me make Sinterkwaien?

Thomas? No, you can do it.

Do you want to have a good time?

Because you're not afraid anymore.

What did you say there?

Thomas?

Life is a struggle, boy.

Only the lazy and the weak are happy.

Dad?

Yeah?

Do you want to tell me something?

Fish.

Fishing?

Pisces is happy.

Yeah.

Do you know how that happens?

Because they don't have to work.

And the manna keeps falling from the sky.

Are we ready?

That's a sharp knife, isn't it, Dad?

Yes, then you can Scream like an old cow.

Yeah.

What rat runs through it.

I hate dull knives.

Hey, daddy.

Goodbye, a hug from me.

You won't believe it.

Your brother hit me.

And do you know why?

Because I'm wearing pants.

Thomas, Margot, to your rooms.

No, no, no, no.

Everyone should know this.

Thomas, Margot, your Uncle Ben hit your Aunt Pie.

I mean, is he crazy? About Lotje or something?

Have a seat, cupcake.

You, as the older brother, must tell him that this is not possible.

Otherwise, I'll be standing in front of our house with a sign.

Mr. Klopper beats his wife for wearing pants.

Pastel.

A man's job is to guide his wife and child.

And if they don't listen to him, then he has no choice but to... Hit?

Strict action.

This is how God ordered it.

And God also commanded that women wear dresses and men wear pants.

Oh.

And if you strongly resist the will of God commandments, then man has the right.

No.

The duty to force you to obey, if necessary, with a firm hand.

Actually.

So I don't need you.

But I tell you this.

If Benno hits me again, then I'll run away.

And then he never sees me again.

And from now on I will only wear pants.

Because you hug me.

What happened to your nose anyway?

You haven't resisted either. God's commandments, I hope?

I hit myself.

In the aquarium.

Right, dad?

Yes, that can be ugly. An aquarium like that.

I personally regularly find aquariums.

Especially with my nose.

I'm going to make some coffee.

You are just as much of a Loveback as your brother.

GOOD.

Back to my pious husband. with his hands shaking.

But I will teach him.

We are not fooled.

GOOD?

What is this?

Feel.

A man who beats his wife dishonors himself.

Margoza wants to turn off the music.

Who put this note in the Bible?

It seems that someone wants to turn us against each other and against God.

Completely in the spirit of our times.

¿OMS?

Nobody?

Nothing remains hidden from God.

Almighty God.

See our need.

Help this family stay strong during this time of temptation.

¿OMS?

I.

I don't believe it.

It's a strange letter.

I found it on the street.

I did it.

No.

It was me, dad.

You lie.

No, look.

There are holes in this letter.

I did it with this safety pin.

Look.

You didn't lie, Thomas.

I falsely accused you.

Forgive me.

But who incites you against your father?

Is that the cake?

I'm not saying it.

Thomas.

Yeah?

Tell me who wrote this note.

No, daddy.

Grab the spoon and wait on top.

What did I say?

No.

My little hero stays here.

And you read the Bible.

Damn.

Stay home there.

Margot puts that knife away.

Mom and Thomas, don't be afraid of God.

They are sweet.

You are not nice.

Don't think I don't dare.

I'm not nice either.

I don't care what sodomites you believe.

But there are no more blows.

you know it's wrong and you just do it.

As long as the markets do it, they'll notice, right?

The end of the pus.

Or I would have fallen asleep again.

Ah, it's outside.

I'm going to bed.

He was howling while cleaning.

Do it again.

I mean the screams.

You really have talents, Thomas.

But what does it mean?

Nothing.

Simply nothing.

Nothing?

Yeah.

Music usually doesn't mean anything either.

You can enjoy it.

The same with the forest or the sea.

The forest is the forest.

The sea is the sea.

Simply beautiful.

Yeah.

Simply beautiful.

Sometimes we go to the word sand.

What does sin mean?

Continue.

Nothing at all.

Life can be a party.

He also built the court around the tabernacle and the altar.

And he hung the blanket on the court door.

This is how Moses felt about the end of the work.

Then the cloud covered the tent of meeting.

And the glory of the Lord filled the tabernacle.

I'm sorry honey.

Clears quickly.

What's going on?

What do people come for?

What kind of people?

Aunt Pie.

Aunt Pie?

Perhaps you would like to set up the Should we move the table and put the chairs in?

Just for Aunt Pie?

More friends are coming.

Maybe you want to dress nice too.

Zep.

Why am I just hearing this now?

I'm sorry.

It is forgotten.

Surprise.

You are also invited.

Ah.

Ah, here we are.

Are you OK?

Like this.

We are from the Thomas Nice Things club.

You have an invitation too, right?

The club of beautiful things?

It's all there, Mr. Beater.

Ah, Thomas.

Hello, Mr. Klopper.

Like this.

Hello, Thomas.

Well.

Mangosteen.

And what do you think of my new pants?

Well, you can keep it, Pie.

You've got a good poop for it.

Aunt Pie.

Hey, I love you, a hug from me.

Hello Thomas.

This is how I move.

Why banana?

Yeah.

Oh yeah.

Very good.

What a regret.

You come?

Well done.

Yes, of course it was.

Yes, nice.

That's going well.

Hello everyone.

What do you see as lightness in it?

GOOD.

A little softer...

Thomas is going to read to him.

Thomas Klopper reads a poem... Why?

On my part.

It was written by myself.

In the book of all things.

Painful memories.

Letters on paper.

A child sits hunched at my table.

And he writes and writes.

The book I am writing... flows easily from my pen.

Because being happy doesn't hurt.

Because I get used to it.

Fun stuff, just for fun.

Humpty Dumpty's Landfill.

All feet are dancing.

Tumpty Dum, Tumpty Dum.

Good material, tumpty fall.

Good stuff, silly.

Beautiful things that are air.

I will do that.

How is Thomas?

It will be fine.

Will you take it with you soon?

I'm really looking forward to playing the trumpet for him.
