Is being a father what you had expected? When musician and friend Thijs announces he will have a daughter, Jeroen decides to follow him. In the process, he looks back on his own parenthood. About doubts and love without a manual.
“Are you living the life you wanted to live?” Jeroen is a burned-out father struggling with the loss of an identity that was lost with his children. When musician and friend Thijs becomes a father, Jeroen decides to capture his road to parenthood.
