    romeo

    I liked the movie,because it has been my own story.The last time i saw it ,it was a year or 3 ago.Since then i can't find it and it is also not even available. I would like to have this movie,because,it means so much to me.Wher can i get it or order it? My own situation is similar to the movie...same weeks of pregnancy and same death of the baby...also a boy. The name is not the same but the rest of it is.My husband and i divorced because of it and in this movie is very much shown what can happen between a man and a woman in such difficult situations.You can live through this but you have to talk and listen to each other.When not ,you're going to be so empty.This film makes me heal,every once in a while ,when i need it..

    • Trivia
      The film is largely autobiographic. Rita Horst and her husband Johan Leysen had lost their son Jef, who was also stillborn. Horst wrote the screenplay and directed the film to process this loss, with Leysen playing Matthijs (and thus effectively himself). The movie is dedicated to Jef.
