The Netherlands, 2008, 90 min.
Directed by Leo de Boer, camera: Marco Nauta, produced by Pieter van Huystee Film

Just imagine having an incurable kidney disease, being in constant pain and calling hospital your second home. You’ll always be small and ugly. What do you do then? Instead of turning into a victim, Bart de Graaff went on stage, became a media star and set up the most popular Dutch TV channel. He died in 2002 at the age of 35, after single-handedly turning the entire world of Dutch television upside down. A moving story about a small man and his desperate struggle for a great life.
