The plot follows a Dutch horticulturist from the day he leaves his farm to be admitted to hospital for cancer treatment to the inevitable sad ending. The film displays intensely how the different people concerned deal with the taboo of cancer (which was very strong in the 70s). Nobody tells the protagonist that he is in fact fatally ill so that he has to discover that by himself and come to terms with it. (imdb)

"Red Sunset" - A realistic fairy tale about old people in the no man's land between life and death, set in a retirement home.

The improvisation-based performance was inspired by psychiatrists such as RD Laing (Family and Madness) and J. Foudraine (Who is of wood). The Werkteater played this performance 'in the den of the lion': in psychiatric institutions for patients and carers. This led to very intensive and adventurous performances in which 'a lot' always happened. Afterwards the discussions sometimes ran high, but even during the performance the audience sometimes mixed themselves in the scenes.

"Hello Fellow Man" - Three lovely ladies of the class invite homeless people, homeless people and junks to spend a pleasant evening with them. To promote communication and integration. They celebrate this party live on television.
