En 1959, Herman et Egbert quittent la Hollande avec leur mère. Après 35 ans d’isolement dans un village du sud de la France, les deux frères sont presque complètement coupés de la société. Mais un hollandais tente d’acheter le village à des fins touristiques. Ils n’ont pas le courage de quitter leur mère, très âgée et dominatrice.
The camera pursues the life of two Dutch brothers, Herman and Egbert over the course of several months. Their mother wanted to disassociate herself from the petty bourgeois atmosphere in Holland during the fifties. In 1959 she took her two boys and left for Marnhac, a deserted village in southern France. After living in France for the the next 35 years both brothers have become almost fully alienated from society. They don't have the courage to leave their very aged and dominant mother.
