Ball Possession

2007 · 10 min · ★ 5.0 · Comedy

Following an amateur soccer match, one of the players (Peter Heerschop) looks for his ball. He finds it, cruelly floating in the middle of a brook, just out of reach. The soccer player takes things to extremes in his occasionally slapstick-like attempts to recover the ball without getting his clothes wet. And he does not make any friends doing it.

Documentary about the Dutch writer Wim Hofman, the most acclaimed living writer from Zeeland. As a writer, poet and visual artist, Wim Hofman is completely unique.
