The World according to John

Jan K., an ordinary boy from The Hague, fights for the bonfire, his neighbourhood and his dignity. But it is difficult to compete against a critically ill father, bailiffs and the arrival of a luxury resort. Then the handsome journalist Kim appears in Jan's life. In The World According to John, talk radio host John takes you through the incredible, true story of "The Hero of Duindorp". A story about dreams, the urge for recognition and an ultimate act of desperation.
