My Turn

Wout is a competition cyclist a mountain climber and a student at the film academy Joost is an artist with a substantial track record This film tells the story of their difficult relationship seen from the perspective of the younger brother who is not afraid to dish up a good share of selfmockery My brother thinks that once in a lifetime everyone should take apart an engine block we hear him say in the voiceover Next we see Wout grapple with a towel and a pile of engine parts while his older brother irritably lectures him from a distance When Wout scales the slopes of the Himalayas with his camera he comes to the point of making an important decision about his life
