With the disorder in the household further compounded by a workers' protest, his widow Agathe (Renée Soutendijk) demands the return from Europe of Jan's pompous son Cornelius (Florian Myjer) and heavily pregnant daughter-in-law Josefin (Lisa Zweerman). When they all learn of Jan's decision to bequeath his estate to his son with Siti, the ensuing power struggles add a further degree of turbulence. The demise of European colonialism has never been captured in a more vibrant and aesthetically exuberant manner (much like a Dutch master’s painting) than in this delightfully cynical film.
