Escape from Albatros

Director: Jamille van Wijngaarden, Steven Wouterlood, Janice Pierre
In an extremely efficient future society, Jayson’s grandma and Maud’s grandpa fail the annual competence test for people over 70. In this youth series, they are deported to a seniors’ island.
It is the year 2040 and in this future Netherlands every citizen must perform. Children study for their future, parents work non-stop and the Uit Treed Test (resignation test) measures to what extent people in their seventies still fit in this over-efficient society. If they fail, they are deported to one of the artificial islands off the Dutch coast. In this eight-part youth series, grandchildren Jayson and Maud discover that their grandparents are not ‘enjoying a life of leisure’ over there at all. So they plot a spectacular escape.
