Join us for an unexpected journey with 71-year-old taxi driver Sjef!
OVER DIT EVENEMENT
When 71-year-old Limburg taxi driver Sjef finds out he’s losing his beloved job, he unexpectedly takes a turn and embarks on a journey with his regular passengers that none of them saw coming.
Every morning, Sjef travels the same route through South Limburg, picking up his regular passengers, who rely on his rickety minibus for their appointments and fragile connection to the outside world. They bring rhythm, connection, and meaning to his days, just as he does for them.
When Sjef is abruptly fired and has to surrender his keys and bus, he picks up his passengers one last time. At the intersection where he usually turns right, he accelerates and goes straight ahead. What follows is an unplanned, sometimes dangerous journey, revealing surprising resilience among his elderly and vulnerable passengers. Industrial landscapes gradually give way to expansive views, while the group dwindles along the way. What begins as an impulsive decision blossoms into a voyage that stirs something in each of them and gives Sjef the courage to embark on the rest of his life.
