[LAUGHTER]

With you at Vriesbeuk.

Boy, oh boy.

Well, next one.

Who's left?

Here you go.

Come and sit down.

Sit up, sit up.

Hey, hey, hey, hey.

Is that the cooked one?

Is that the short woman?

Goop.

Well.

Yeah, I think so too.

I don't think so, Daanie.

Good man.

Let's see.

Daanie, Daanie.

Well then.

Come on, Daanie.

Come on, Daanie.

He's looking forward to it.

Do you see?

Come on.

Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey...

What do you think? The short woman.

The short woman.

Come

on.

Let's see the lady with that hair.

Yo.

Yo.

Are you coming?

You like Paris, right?

Yes.

When he sat on the stool, he started crying.

What a fag.

What a pussy.

Look, Ruben!

Here, there in the middle.

Well done!

Hey boys, top job!

Yes, play it, play it!

To me, to me, to me, to me!

Great man, great man!

Yes!

Nice!

Lovely, lovely!

Well done, well done!

Nice, nice!

The second team.

How do you see it?

Are you okay?

Come on, pussy, come on.

Come on, come on.

Can you stand on it or not?

Nothing at all.

No!

Come on, let's head off.

Are you okay?

Ah, wait a second.

Up we go.

Yes.

Yes, that's... Come.

Let's get some ice on it.

Let's leave this for a bit, okay?

We made the team selections yesterday.

Most of the guys here are going to, uh, the second team.

Do you want to know where you're going, or...

They wanted to send you to the second team too.

But I told them they have to give you a chance.

You're going to the first team with Ruben, friend.

No.

No.

He's not staying.

Okay, boys.

Kevin in, and keep it moving.

Be careful, okay?

Yes.

Hello, hello.

Good cross.

Hey.

I've got a little package for you.

A full kilo.

He went into a tackle a bit too hard.

What's all this?

He got hit hard.

Go on then.

It'll be fine.

It'll be fine.

Needs some ice on it, I think.

Come here.

Are you okay?

And Gilles?

Are you going to look after him?

Okay, get a stool and a pillow, okay?

Okay.

He's a tough kid.

It'll be fine.

Yes.

You could learn something from that.

Fraidy-cat.

Hey, I'll let you guys eat in peace, yeah?

Thank you.

Go for it, okay?

Yes.

And Michiel, make sure Frank finishes his plate.

Yes.

Yeah?

Will you do that?

Here.

Ow.

Michiel.

Good.

Yeah, put a lot on.

A lot?

Yes.

There.

And also a bit on here.

Want to grab it yourself?

Yourself, take all ten.

Your child?

Go grab your little baby.

No.

Oh, no.

I have mice in my house.

No, honey.

Well done.

No.

Where's he going?

Is he okay?

Hey.

Eww.

Hey, there's Ries.

Oh, wait.

A real shame, isn't it?

Yeah, no.

I understand.

- Hey, honey. - Oh.

I can take him there too.

Yes.

Would you like that?

If you want.

Are you coming to the match?

Yeah, okay.

This is it, Johan, the temple.

Here.

You can also...

Then you know what you're working towards.

Yes, boss, I say.

Yes, boss.

Can't you do that?

Yeah, come on now.

Nice.

Well done, well done.

ULTRA FUN.

ULTRA FUN.

ULTRA FUN.

Understand?

Best afternoon ever.

How nice.

Next time you'll have ULTRA FUN too.

If you've done your homework.

Yeah, if I haven't done my homework.

Yeah, if I haven't done my homework.

Yeah, garden.

No, but... Math is fun too.

Come on, your turn to speak.

Well, is anyone going to help?

Come on.

No, it's your turn, right?

Not you, but you're going to... Clean up your camera.

It's Michiel's turn.

Honey, you have... Huh?

It's Michiel's turn.

Did you... You can open it a little bit.

In the shed.

Oh no.

You can do it.

Daan, Daan, Daan.

Ooh.

Ooh.

Ooh.

Ooh.

Hey, that's not a knife, is it?

No, but go ahead...

Ooh, sorry.

Okay.

I really respect your mother.

Raising four of these boys.

Yes.

Dad too, right?

Yes, and Dad, yeah.

Yes, I have five children.

Ah, Wimpie.

But you're one of the young pups.

It's unbelievable.

Yes, but anyway.

I only have to teach them how to play soccer, right?

Then I'll head back home.

I'm going to have a beer.

Hey, hey, hey, hey.

Daan.

He’s really got what it takes, you know.

That's really great.

He's so eager.

It's great to see.

I'll try to bring that out in the coming months.

See, you can work hard when you want, right?

Hey.

Would you like to work at the club?

Just help out every now and then.

Yeah?

Would you like that?

Cool, man.

Yes.

Good, I'll arrange it.

Yes.

Dude.

Jeez.

What?

Yes.

Where was that?

What do you think?

GelreDome.

Sick.

Hey man, you pussy.

Come on.

Help.

It's like a nursing home in here, man.

Just take it from me, Daan.

You don't hear him.

Man, oh man.

You look so weak.

Are we almost there?

Come on.

Five.

Four.

Three.

Two.

One.

And push-ups.

Nice one, Daan.

I have a surprise for you guys.

Puppies.

Puppies.

Come on, team.

That wasn't a surprise.

Yes, it was.

After that, we'll practice finishing.

Come on.

Just cycle slowly, guys.

Does it always have to be a race?

Come on, boys.

You can't keep up anyway.

Come on.

Hey.

Bye-bye.

Come on, come on.

Yes.

Wear them out.

Yes.

Who, who, who.

Oh, oh, oh, oh.

Yes, boy.

Look at that.

Come on, let's go inside.

Holy shit.

Is this real?

Yeah, what do you think?

Did Bero sign that?

Yes.

It's on there, isn't it?

Shit.

Come on, take your bag off.

Do you know that?

Yeah, right?

Attention!

Do you have to shoot someone?

Well, yeah.

You shoot, but it's actually more defensive.

It's not like we're constantly attacking all the time.

But anyway, it's all politics.

Blah blah blah.

Sick.

And do you have a weapon like that too?

A real weapon.

No, man.

Of course not.

I'm not allowed to bring it, crazy.

Sick.

Daan, we still have to do homework for tomorrow.

Are you coming?

I was... I was almost finished, so...

Yes.

Are you sure?

Yes.

Too bad.

Okay.

Okay.

Then I'm going.

You can stay, Ruben.

No.

No?

Okay.

Bye then.

Bye.

Bye.

Bye.

Sick.

Sick, right?

Yes.

Yes.

Serious guy, isn't he?

Ruben.

What shall we do?

No idea.

Shall we watch some goals?

Yeah?

Watch some scoring.

Yo.

Yes.

You can learn something from this.

And then... look here.

Tap, tap, tap.

And boom.

That's a nice goal.

That's right.

It's a beautiful goal.

Yes, it's a beautiful goal.

Right, right.

But it's more about what happens before.

Understand?

They're all in the right position.

The player is standing here too, see?

They were maybe just two steps further forward.

And that's why they were perfectly placed.

Look, look at Frenkie de Jong.

Frenkie de Jong.

One of the best players in the world.

Does he score a lot?

No.

No.

But he just has tactical insight.

Understand?

So he knows exactly where to stand.

Yes.

Yes.

So we can make you the new Frenkie de Jong too.

You guys are only focused on scoring.

Want something else to drink?

Yeah, that'd be good.

Let's watch something else.

Exciting, right?

I have to go home.

Yeah, that's fine, man.

Daan.

Glad you came over, man.

Yes.

Yeah, but.

A bit too enthusiastic.

Hi, Daan.

Where were you?

At Ruben's.

You know we eat at six, right?

Daan, why didn't you pick up your phone?

Didn't hear it.

Well, come on.

Put your shoes in the hall and sit down, okay?

Yes.

Well, come on.

Hello.

Hello.

Done.

Why do we always eat this nasty tofu?

Because it's very tasty.

And very healthy.

And good for the climate.

Well.

Well, Dad had to get used to it at first too,

but you like it now, don't you, honey?

Yes.

Definitely.

I have the posters.

Oh, I'm excited.

Jeez.

Oh.

Yes, and the other one?

Yes, look.

Look.

Oh, but this one is ours, honey.

This one is perfect.

Yes, it's beautiful, isn't it?

This is the one.

Yes, I think that's really beautiful.

Yes.

But you have a kind of wisdom, don't you think?

Yes.

Music

Now you hear me inside me, but I hear the fire inside your desire.

Tomorrow can be frightening, burning...

Hey, Dad, do you have a pull-tab?

Yes, that love.

Hey, boy, looking forward to it?

Hey, hey, hey, that's how I like to see you.

Come on, let's go!

We're coming to check on you, you know.

Yes, alright.

Come on, hop to it!

Yoo-hoo!

Yoo-hoo!

We're going to clean up!

You're working hard, I see.

We're a good team together, boy.

You'd better help instead of just watching.

Yes, boss.

There.

Come here.

Move aside for a second.

Whoo!

Just take your shirt off, man.

It's all sticky, isn't it?

Doesn't feel good, does it?

Come here.

What?

Jeez, you're so sticky.

Oh.

Damn, you're all sticky.

What?

There you go.

I didn't know you'd get angry.

Here.

Thanks for helping me.

What is it?

What?

Pure muscle, boy.

What?

Wow, look at that.

Whew!

Ah!

[LAUGHTER] Whoo!

[LAUGHTER] Come on then, come on.

[LAUGHTER]

Well, did it go okay?

He's a top guy, man.

They're all sweaty from the work.

You can definitely handle more.

I'll make a note of that.

Good, boy.

Meert is the best-looking guy.

Really.

An eight.

But Tessa... a ten.

You're crazy, man.

Total knock-out.

Seven.

That's actually nice, right?

Dude.

No, man.

A six and a half.

Right, Daan?

There's only one who's a real ten.

Eva?

No, man.

No tits.

Good mouth, though.

Hey, guys.

First one in bed gets an ice cream.

Come on then.

Hoppa!

No, no, no.

It's all over here.

Hey, take it.

No, no.

No, for that ball.

Can't I come to your place?

No, that's nothing for you.

Why not?

Well, it's such a...

It's such a mess at a student place.

He's going to study, I'm doing homework.

So... clothes and junk all over the floor.

So, uh...

Well, have fun there.

Yeah.

Right, then?

Later.

Hey, Daan.

How nice.

Good to see you.

I brought some apple cake.

Nice, man.

Come on in.

Home-baked.

Nice, man.

Have a seat.

Athletes need to eat well, right?

You know that.

That's what my mom always says too.

You have a very sensible mother.

How's your new school?

Are you enjoying it?

Cool.

Loyal, right?

I got a nine for math.

Did you really?

Yes.

You're kidding.

Man, you overachiever.

Nice, man.

A nine.

Shit.

I wish I could do that.

I feel like gaming for a bit.

Oh, already.

No, that was a good move.

Yeah, that was well-deflected.

Shoot!

Ooh!

No.

Watch out.

No.

No, no, no, no, no, no.

Look how easily he taps it in.

Okay.

Look at that.

Pass.

Boom!

Yes!

Too bad!

It's clear they're going to win, but by how much... Yeah.

No, not at all.

No, really not.

It's just because you're messing with my controller.

You can't handle it.

Hey, you won a round.

I won two rounds.

I think it's perfectly fair.

I don't want a rematch.

No, come on.

This is the last round.

Hey, I'm really glad you're here.

And you can stay a little longer.

I enjoy the company.

But I still have a lot of boring housework to do.

So I'd say, just stay where you are.

I'll put something fun on for you.

I don't know how you can watch this without jerking off.

Hm?

Here.

Go ahead, man.

Just do it.

What does it matter?

It's perfectly healthy, you know.

You don't have to be ashamed.

I'm going home.

Huh?

Yeah, I want to for a bit too.

I'm going to get a drink.

Just keep watching.

Hey, having tea at your mom's?

Yes.

Yes?

Come on, let's go.

Well, at least you have something to tell them at home.

Huh?

A nine for math.

Nice job.

Hey, Michiel.

Hoppa.

Mercy.

Mercy.

Mercy.

Hey.

Hello.

How's it going?

Yeah, good, and you?

Yeah?

Good.

Daan, I was going to pick you up to bike together.

Hey, honey.

Well, look at that.

Our little man is becoming a teenager.

Hi, man.

Hey, be a bit nice to your trainer.

Yeah, sure.

Good.

Well.

Uh, you're in luck.

Want a piece?

Tasty.

Nice of you to drop by.

It's so great what you're doing with these boys.

Yes.

Are you busy?

Not too bad, not too bad.

Yes?

Yes.

Do you want some tea?

Sounds good.

Oh, good.

No.

It's fun, right?

So it's not exhausting either.

No.

It's actually just very relaxed.

Pretty relaxed, yeah.

Yes, definitely.

Thank you.

Yes.

But there was a huge fight at the pool the other day.

So it was all hands on deck for a bit.

Yes.

But hey, that's nothing compared to Mali, right?

I think, I think... I think so.

I think so.

What?

Vitesse.

Vitesse.

How much?

Vitesse.

1-0.

1-0.

Vitesse.

Quem 2-0.

Allelu Lighting 3-0.

Vitesse 1-0... blah, blah, blah, blah, blah,

blah and blah, blah, blah and blah, blah and blah and blah.

What, what, uh, guys?

The best horse in the stable gets no custard.

Come on, come on, come on.

How is that possible?

Okay, Pieter, what's in the barrel?

The winner gets this shot.

Look, are we ready?

I say three, I say two, I say one.

Look, here you see him pulling it outside.

You do this better.

Are you going to

buy more candy?

I still have to study French.

And my presentation.

The whole afternoon?

Yes.

Okay.

Well, bye.

Bye.

See you tomorrow.

How's school?

Still happy?

No, have to do a presentation.

Really not feeling it.

No.

Why not?

That's fun, isn't it?

Hm?

A presentation.

Do you have a topic yet, or not?

No, why?

Don't know anything.

You don't know anything?

How about soccer?

Hm?

Well.

I probably have to help you with it, don't I?

Yes.

You made the suggestion, so.

Yes, but maybe at some point

it's useful if you start thinking of things yourself too.

Or otherwise, you take me to class.

This is my trainer.

This is my soccer trainer.

He's very sweet.

And kind.

Probably just talking shit.

Damn kids.

Wouldn't you want that too sometime?

Yes.

Hm?

It's nice, you know.

Yeah, wait, shall I turn it on?

Yes.

Yes, yes, yes, yes.

Wait a second, wait a second.

Wait a second, wait a second.

Yes.

Uh.

Look, do you want this?

I'll take the low road.

Low, right?

Low, right?

Yes.

I think we had... Yes.

Yes.

Yes.

Yes.

Yes.

Daan, are you okay again?

Yes.

Yes.

Yes, yes.

And between...

Between...

Between... World.

Through the rain and the clouds.

I'll be there if... Yes!

That... Yes.

Yes.

SINGING AND MUSIC Oh, this is the first line.

I like it, I like it.

Just follow me, you know.

Otherwise we'd use a different rhythm.

I feel like

every day with you is a victory.

And I have no doubt about that.

With you by my side, no current is ever too strong.

In fact, you get it for us.

In fact, for you.

I fly.

It's between light and dark.

It's between heaven and hell.

It makes no sense.

Yes, that's nice, isn't it?

Why didn't you guys open the door just now?

You and Ries?

I saw your bike out front, but you didn't open up.

You and Ries.

What time was that?

Four o'clock.

Well?

We were out grocery shopping then.

Come on, come on.

Nice, Daan.

Come on, Daan.

Keep going, keep going.

Tick, tick, tick.

Not so good.

Come on, come on, keep running, keep running.

Yes, yes, yes, yes, yes.

And... hands up.

Open.

Sick.

Super, right?

Yes.

Yes.

That's for your research, man.

This is a lot of text.

We can plow through that.

But there are lots of pictures in here you can use.

These are sick.

Are those the ones you were talking about lately?

Yes, those are the ones.

Yeah, they're sick.

Yeah, they're sick.

It's a shame about that, but... but they come in another color too, I think.

Yes, that's right.

Do you want to do something for me now?

The same as I just did for you.

I think that's gross.

Hey, I have feelings too, you know.

I have to stay fair, right?

I can't be the only one giving.

Next time.

Yes, boys.

Come on over.

We're going to do the same as last week.

Just a bit of finishing.

Form two groups of five.

No, boys.

I'm coming.

Yes, I'll go first.

Yeah?

Kevin in goal.

Who's helping me with the plans?

I'm heading out.

Who, who, who, who?

Farid.

My master.

Here they are.

Come on, man.

Good job.

Nice, man.

Hoppa.

Ow, ow, ow.

Get him, get him, get him.

Yes, okay.

Nice boy.

Here, put that over there.

Well done, Farid.

Nice.

Come on, keep up the tempo, okay?

Yes, yes.

Okay, hand in your essay here.

Don't forget your name at the top.

Yes.

Yes.

Yes.

Good.

Daan, you're the last one.

Daan?

Where is your project?

It's not finished yet.

Not finished?

It had to be in today, right?

Yes.

When will you have it?

Tomorrow.

Do you have it?

Yes.

Daan, can you stay for a moment?

I have your report here... six failing grades.

See you later, guys.

Later.

Can I have a meat croquette roll?

Special, with everything?

No, just mustard.

Daan, what are you having?

Nothing.

What a pussy.

Wimp.

Come on, Daan.

Are you still coming over to game?

No.

I have to train.

You're always training.

Yes, so?

It's boring.

Then don't come.

Fine.

Suit yourself.

Daan?

Daan!

What?

We're eating in five minutes.

I'm not hungry.

Eat with us anyway.

It's Friday night.

Wim, let him be.

No, I don't like this.

Daan, come downstairs now.

How was your presentation?

Fine.

I don't like the atmosphere lately.

You're always in your room.

Leave me alone.

Daan, talk to us.

There's nothing to say.

Is it school?

No.

Is it the soccer?

No, soccer is great.

Ries says you're doing well.

See?

Then what's the problem?

I'm just tired.

Can I go now?

Finish your plate first.

I'm done.

Hey, Ruben called.

So?

He said you've been acting weird lately.

He's a loser.

Daan!

He's your best friend.

Not anymore.

Leave me alone!

Hey, Daanie.

Ready for the special training?

Yes, Coach.

Good man.

You look a bit down.

Everything okay at home?

They're just annoying.

I get it.

Parents don't understand talent.

They just want you to be normal.

But you're not normal, Daan.

You're special.

You're the best I've ever seen.

Really?

Would I lie to you?

We're a team, remember?

Us against the world.

Yes.

Come here.

Give me a hug.

That's it.

Don't tell them about this training.

It's our secret.

They'd just be jealous.

I won't tell.

I know you won't.

You're a loyal guy.

Let's go to the field.

Run, run, run!

Faster, Daan!

Show me that power.

Yes!

Perfect.

You see how they look at you?

The boys from the second team?

They're nothing compared to you.

You belong with the pros.

With me.

Yes, Coach.

Call me Ries when we're alone.

Okay, Ries.

That sounds better.

Come on, let's get you home.

I don't want to go home.

I know, buddy.

But we have to keep up appearances.

Tomorrow, same time?

Yes.

Good.

See you tomorrow.

Daan, we need to talk.

Not now, Dad.

Now.

I spoke to your teacher.

Six failing grades?

Six?

What have you been doing?

I was training.

For four hours a day?

The teacher says you're never there.

I am there!

Don't lie to me!

Where were you this afternoon?

With Ries.

At the club?

Yes, at the club.

I'm calling him.

No!

Why not?

It's none of your damn business!

Daan! Watch your mouth!

I'm trying to help you!

I don't need your help!

You don't know anything about soccer!

This isn't about soccer, it's your life!

My life is soccer!

You're grounded. No training tomorrow.

You can't do that!

I just did.

Go to your room.

Hey, Ries?

Daan? What's wrong?

My dad... he says I can't come tomorrow.

Why not?

Because of my grades.

That's not fair.

He doesn't understand your future.

I'll talk to him.

No, please don't.

That one's mine.

That's my weapon.

Can I see it?

Maybe later.

When you've proven you're loyal.

I am loyal!

I know you are, buddy.

But your parents...

They're holding you back.

They want you to stay a child.

But I see a man.

Do you want to be a man?

Yes.

Then you have to make your own choices.

Don't let them stop you.

Ruben is just jealous of you.

He's not good enough for the first team.

He wants to drag you down to his level.

Is that what you want?

No.

Good.

I have a gift for you.

What is it?

A new pair of boots.

The ones the pros wear.

Wow.

They're sick.

Only for my best player.

Don't show your parents.

They'll ask where you got the money.

It's our little secret.

Okay.

Thanks, Ries.

Anything for you, Daanie.

You're like the son I never had.

Really?

Really.

Now, go back inside.

Act like everything is normal.

We'll meet at the usual spot tomorrow.

I'll be there.

Yes.

He just arrived on his bike.

He has a flat tire.

He's just... he's just ringing the bell.

Yes.

20 minutes.

Okay.

That's fine.

Bye.

Okay.

Hi.

I'm going to grab your bike, okay?

Do you want to come along?

Hey, Wim.

Well, there he is.

The prodigal son.

Hey.

I called you eight times.

Are you okay?

Watch out, there's a turn coming.

Yes, yes, yes.

A turn.

Watch out.

Yes.

Right.

Yes, I know how to get there, don't I?

Don't be so irritable.

You're the one being irritable.

I don't want him going to see him anymore.

Yes.

Why do you go to him and not your friends?

Yes.

I'm old enough.

I decide for myself what I do.

Oh, really?

Does he give you things?

Wim, let's not discuss this now.

That can wait until later, okay?

I don't want you going to him anymore.

Do you hear what Dad is saying?

Understood?

I'm hungry.

Okay, that's fine.

Roos, do you have a meat croquette roll?

A meat croquette roll.

Yes, enjoy your meal.

Hey, what did you do to deserve this?

Hey, this boy worked really hard.

Are you guys friends?

Well, we often go to the stadium together.

Do you guys watch porn together too?

Well, I don't need Ries for that, Daan.

Gotta piss.

I shouldn't even bring that up.

That'll just cause nothing but trouble.

It's all perfectly normal, you know.

Some people just don't make a fuss about it.

What do you have here?

No.

Why are you leaving so fast?

Yeah, busy.

I'm busy.

Will I see you again?

I'm busy.

Hey, Daan.

Can you come to the kitchen with Mom and me?

Why?

Just come here.

A letter arrived.

From the club.

And I need to read it to you.

To the parents of youth members.

Dear parents,

To our great regret, we are forced to inform you of a

suspicion of sexual abuse within the club.

Last Wednesday, our secretary was informed in a personal conversation by the parents

of a youth member about sexual abuse

of their son by one of the leaders, Ries Kouwen.

Now that the police consider the report serious enough to launch an investigation,

the time has also come, in our judgment, to inform the parents.

Therefore, we invite all parents of youth members to the club canteen tomorrow evening,

where an information evening will take place in

cooperation with the police detective conducting the investigation.

Do you understand what Dad just read?

We are really shocked.

Did Ries do weird things with you?

No, never.

Did he never try anything?

Of course not.

Well, it's...

It's not that "of course" anymore.

Did he ever show you weird films or something?

No.

Daanie, look at me.

Did he really never touch you?

No.

I'm just saying, no.

If you don't believe me then... No, no honey, we believe you.

Absolutely, sorry.

We're just extremely worried.

Are you okay?

You must be shocked as well.

Cool headphones.

Friends.

Did you guys get that letter too?

Hm?

About Ries.

Yeah, bizarre.

I just can't believe it.

It's got to be bullshit anyway.

Yes.

I really hope it's not true.

Yeah, me too.

It's a total setup.

Can you even imagine?

Yeah, really gross.

Disgusting.

You don't even know if it's true.

Yeah, so?

What do you think about it?

But you know him, right?

Yeah, it's bullshit.

Yeah, there's a... recording.

Yeah, video, right?

Yes.

Yeah, 103 is already... Yeah, right.

Yeah, that's right.

Yeah, that's right, yeah.

103.

Well.

Hey, hold on!

Hey.

I'm stopping here now.

Come.

It can really happen, it's the weekend.

Hey.

Look there!

It was over!

Hey.

Listen to me.

Hey, listen.

Why are you acting like this?

Hello, I'm allowed to stand up, right?

Hey, stop being so annoying.

Listen, I want to tell you something.

Hey, I want to tell you something.

I'm going away for a while.

I'm going to work for a friend of mine in Spain.

People are talking about you, is that why?

Listen.

People talk, yeah, let them talk.

Don't go, please.

Don't do it.

Daan, let go of me, please.

Hey.

Listen, sweetheart.

With us, it was different.

Hey, between us, it's different.

Really.

I have nothing with you.

Never had, either.

I thought Ries was a nice man and I got along well with him.

The relationship between him and me is good.

Ries also visits our home regularly.

I have also been to Ries's house many times.

When I went to Ries, I was usually in the company of my friends.

I have also gone to Ries's home alone a few times.

Recently my parents received a letter from the soccer club stating that

Ries committed indecent acts.

I must tell you that he never did anything to me of a sexual nature.

Correct.

He never even made an attempt to do so.

I never noticed him doing those kinds of things.

Correct.

Look, you'd think that if you go there regularly...

given the charges against Ries...

that something must have happened.

Yes, and Ries just comes to our house too.

So... My parents knew him very well too.

Just a friend.

Nothing more.

Nothing more.

Then you stay with that.

Yes.

It's pretty cold in here.

That's true.

We'll get that goal, right?

R-r-r, Ries.

Ries.

R-r-r, Ries.

Hey, shut your mouths.

What the fuck is that about, boy?

What losers.

Hey, don't pay attention to them.

Hey, boy, shift gears.

Hey, throw, shift gears.

Hey, throw, shift gears.

Keep going!

Okay.

Good, good, yeah.

Ah.

You like that, don't you, you little fag?

Yes, play on.

Good, Mike.

Hey!

What the hell, man?

Hey, why did you do that?

Hey, hey.

Hey, hey.

Hey, hey.

Hey, hey.

Hey, Daan, take it easy.

Hey, I need you to act normal, man.

Dummy.

Go take a shower.

Get out of here.

Shower.

Mike, you act normal too.

Why are you acting like this?

Daan?

Are you eating with us?

Daan.

Why is the door locked?

Because.

Are you eating with us?

I'm not hungry.

Well, you have to eat something.

Come downstairs for a bit.

Dad, I'm tired.

I'm going to sleep.

Leave me alone.

No, no.

Sorry, I really didn't agree with that.

So many emails have been sent out.

Yes, and it has to be today.

No, it's fine with me.

Ma, I'm going to email that designer myself now.

But I'm not stopping there, okay?

Yeah?

I didn't hear you come in at all.

Don't you have class?

Free period.

Free period?

Since when do you have a free period today?

Hm?

Uh...

That... What's wrong?

Yeah, that with...

Daan, what's wrong?

Nothing's wrong.

Go away.

Do you have a moment?

Are you going to school?

Yes, very good.

You can't afford to skip class, you know that, right?

Yes.

What are you all looking at?

I'm coming from the club... and the police were there...

and they asked how you were doing.

Ries confessed to everything.

Daantje.

I'm so sorry for you.

Oh, it's been so long.

Did he give you things?

Oh, oh!

Why are you acting so weird?

Why aren't you saying anything?

Yes, honey.

We're a bit sad.

Because... Because Daan went through something terrible.

What, then?

I'm getting that punishment from school.

Daan?

Daan?

I want to talk to you, honey.

Let me in.

Please.

Daan, open up.

Daan, don't be like this.

This makes no sense.

Daan, please.

Just open the door.

Daan, open up, Daan.

Please.

Daan, please.

Just open up, Daan.

Please.

Daan, please.

Yes, exactly.

I am indeed the only one who's here the whole time.

Yes, be careful then.

Yes, but what about you?

The club must not find out, so have you never considered what's at stake?

I mean, still, right?

I've never continued.

No, it happened, yes.

You're never there.

Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa.

Please.

No.

Stop it now.

Wim, wait.

Limit it.

And those neighbors, they were here.

Full of pity, of course.

Yeah, well, last thing.

Last thing, seriously?

You've made it so easy.

I'm dying of shame.

The whole village is talking about us.

And that end is your own choice.

Ella, just stop it for a second.

No.

What are you just standing there for?

Why didn't you say anything?

You know you can tell us anything, don't you?

Daan.

He could have at least done something.

I didn't dare.

Give it here.

I can feel it already, man.

It's boiling.

Hey, that's Ries's.

Something did happen once.

That really sucks for you, man.

So.

Let's get some fresh air in here.

Sleep well?

Slept well.

Hey, it's the season finale today.

They asked from the club if you're coming.

If you're coming to help in the kitchen.

And they really want you to be there.

They need you.

Locking yourself up is no use.

It won't make you feel better.

Come on.

Take a nice shower.

I'll make some breakfast.

Look.

How time flies.

Huh?

Pass it to Kevin.

How are you doing?

How are you doing?

Hey.

How are you holding up?

Yeah, how are you doing?

Hi, Wim.

Wonderful.

Wonderful champions, champions.

Daantje.

20 full. How many did you have again?

I was just saying you work in the kitchen so often.

Yes, I like it.

Great job!

Dear people.

Dear people.

Dear people.

What a year.

A lot has happened.

But what a wonderful year.

Our club is a family.

And I feel a bit like the father.

And here stands a proud father.

Especially regarding our youth.

They have delivered a fantastic performance.

Three of our teams became champions in their class.

I have news.

Today we welcome a new trainer into our midst.

Maarten van Bergen.

I've known him since he was this big.

Maarten van Bergen once started here at the club as a pupil.

And now he has finished his sports education.

And he is back here again.

Back at the old home base.

Back at the old nest.

Maarten van Bergen is a real star.

And he's going to work specifically with the young players.

And Maarten.

I have very high expectations of you, of your effort.

Well done, Maarten.

There he goes!

Well done, Maarten.

Okay, time stands still for a moment.

And the era moves on.

What remains after your departure?

What is left of it?

What is left of it?

One day the light will fade.

The sun disappears behind the clouds.

And all I leave behind are my dreams.

Of me when I was young.

Standing alone by the curtain.

The most beautiful flowers do not just wither.

But everything, yes, everything.
