BETWEEN BROTHERS
by Tom Fassaert
synopsis
Since the death of their mother, retired psychologist Rob has been visiting his older brother, René, more regularly. René has been living in isolation for years in a house filled with belongings and old memories, the result of his compulsive hoarding. As they attempt to tidy up the living space and make it more liveable, the brothers grow closer. However, they are also confronted with old patterns and their shared traumatic family history. Rob and René decide to find out together who their father was – the man who left them in a children’s home when they were toddlers and then disappeared from their lives for good.
