Synopsis
Stijn, an idealist with a cheerful, relaxed nature, is one of the last remaining Dutch shepherds working in the traditional way. But nowadays, little remains of the romance and peace that we associate with the centuries-old tradition of sheepherding. Tenders are increasingly hard to acquire—competition from big companies, cheap East European shepherds and high-tech machinery make Stijn the expensive choice. Even as he tries so hard to keep his company afloat, the film captures how the incessant stress transforms him into an embittered man with a quick temper…
