fantastic movie about the Dutch bible-belt

Just saw this movie on TV and i think it's fabulous.It's about an IT-company which is founded and run by two brothers,living on the Veluwe, an area known in Holland as very strict in protestant religion(black stocking church is the nickname in Holland)Although the company tries to work with the strict biblical rules, the family finds it difficult to maintain these rules in big business.Based on a real-life scandal in Holland, the movie is very precise in showing the way these people live and try to explain everything through the bible. In one scene even the minister tells the people in church to go in peace and buy shares of the v. d.Laan company. Based on facts the film gives great insides in the way these people do there business and ,most of the time, get away with it.Acting is sublime!It's really the best Dutch movie i saw for quiet some time.

Brilliant movie

A brilliant movie based on a true story with some fiction to get a great movie! Brilliant acting! The true story-part of this movie is of course the fall of the brothers Baan with their company Baan (in the movie the brothers Van Der Laan). For years the stock Baan was one of the great moneymakers and the two deeply religious brothers were even capable of reaching the Nasdaq. Kees Prins, Pierre Bokma, Monique Hendrickx and many others are very convincing in playing a strict religious family in the town Putten on the Veluwe. The fictional parts of this movie are as touching as a good movie should be! This movie is an absolute must for fans of European movies.

Wissenswertes
The film is a free interpretation of the rise and (especially) decline of the Dutch software company Baan, founded by brothers Jan and Paul Baan. The company ha a strict Christian background was located in Barneveld, in the Veluwe region, from about 1985 to 2000. After a listing on the American stock exchange had been applied for, it turned out that all sorts of financial matters had not been properly arranged; the initial success was based on quicksand. The company was saved from bankruptcy when it was bought by an English company.

Patzer
The congregation sings a hymn hesitantly and rhythmically--a double error in such a strict religious church, songs are sung in full tones, so each tone is equally long and takes several counts. The congregation sings fully and powerfully, especially if it is a jubilee song or psalm of battle. Not surprisingly, the faithful have known these psalms from childhood. Doubts about the text and pitch are unthinkable.
