Stages (2007)
Social worker-turned-feature film dramatist Mijke de Jong illustrates the old adage that time heals all wounds with this semi-improvised domestic drama charting the complicated divorce of an unhappily couple, and the effect of the impassioned break-up on their troubled 17-year-old son. Roos (Elsie de Brauw) and Martin (Marcel Musters) are two middle-aged intellectuals who have spent years attempting to make their marriage work, only to realize that no amount of compromise will compensate for their irreconcilable differences. Unable to be alone in the same room due to the volatile emotions that erupt when they attempt to find a common ground, the fractured couple carries on bickering as their adolescent son, Isaac (Stijn Koomen), falls into a dangerous pattern of juvenile delinquency. ~ Jason Buchanan, Rovi
