Project Herbert

Directed by Barbara Bredero

With Thomas Höppener, Celia van den Boogert, Faye Kimmijser, Nazmiye Oral and André Dongelmans

When his mother decides it is finally time Herbert moves out, the reserved municipal civil servant ends up in his deceased dad’s conked-out old timer. The housing market is overheated, so finding a house is impossible. After several frantic efforts, due to a mistake he is admitted to a students’ dorm. For the first time, Herbert has to learn what it means to share a bathroom, shower, kitchen and living room with lots of people. And the students suddenly have to deal with a forty-something in their chaotic party house. Will these improbable housemates manage to find domestic peace?
