That's what happens to Henk the day a quiet couple come to the farm to take him away. His world is turned upside down when this man & woman say that his name is Benjamin & that he's Jewish. And that he must say good-bye to the only Mama & Papa he knows. During the war Henk was made to hide when the Nazi soldiers came. Now the war is over & the soldiers have gone.
