Synopsis

Inspired by the ideas of Marx, Lenin, Reich and Freud, a group of parents decided to start an anti-authoritarian day care centre in the late 1960s. Here, their children would grow up to become an example of "the new mankind." Marije Meerman was placed in this experimental day care centre, which was remarkably named after a Dutch prince. 25 years later, the director reunites with some former day care playmates.
