Revelinho

Revelinho has to go on stage to save the traditional working class pop music of his parents.
Revelinho is 12 and loves traditional Dutchmusic. He enjoys listening to his favourite Tommy Tijger and sings along at the top of his voice. But he also writes his own songs. His parents argue all the time and divorce looms over them. Revelinho thinks up a solution: he will take part at an open mic night where he will sing a song about his parents that will keep them together. Simple enough, except for the fact that he first has to recruit participants for the open mic night. Then he has to get the immensely popular Senaja to take part.  
This
slightly absurdist film that features fantastical, sometimes even almost
magical elements demonstrates that it is pointless to be held back by wrong
expectations and fears. Revelinho follows his passion and goes for it 100% even
though he runs the risk of making a fool of himself.
