Plot

In My Father's Garden (2016) weaves the touching tale of Hans (Barry Atsma) and Margje (Noortje Herlaar), childhood sweethearts whose love story is as enduring as it is complex. Hans, having escaped a harsh religious upbringing under his ruthless father, finds solace in horticulture, a lifelong passion that eventually leads him to establish a nursery in a quaint Gelderland village post World War II. At first, Hans and Margje revel in their idyllic family life, their love for each other limitless and pure. Yet, the struggle to keep their business afloat begins to cast a shadow over their blissful existence. Everything changes when Hans crosses paths with Jozef Mieras (Marcel Hensema), a man who reintroduces him to God in a profound way. Encountering God's voice in a life-altering vision, Hans plunges deeper into his rediscovered faith, a path that significantly alters his life's trajectory and that of his family. As Hans spirals into the clutches of an intense religious sect, fissures within the family widen, threatening to tear them apart. Yet, undeterred by the turmoil, Margje's unwavering love for Hans remains a beacon of hope, standing resolute amidst the chaos. In My Father's Garden is a testament to the resilience of love against the backdrop of faith, family, and fanaticism.
