Raw satire Dutch style

We already know Theo Maassen from his creative and surreal twists in his comedy stories on stage. He put this into a movie that is equally creative and surreal. It reminded me somewhat of "Being John Malkovich". The main link is that no one could have come up with this plot up front. The people who contributed are the top of the (comedy) line in the Netherlands and they have contributed seriously. They didn't just make an appearance, they carried the movie well. It's one and a half hour of shame, awkwardness, pain, hilarious situations without it ever being overdone. I wish the movie would become available with English subtitles so that people outside of Dutch speaking countries can enjoy this.
