Voor een verloren soldaat (For A Lost Soldier) (1992) Movie Script
A mark of the music

To every kind of freedom
Fill me upon

Here we go again
Amsterdam especially
has kept strong ties
with the liberators
How strong was shown
on Liberation Day 1980...
when the population of the
capital honored them again
It was like the 1945
"May Days" again
Only the soldiers were now
Amsterdam was thanking with
its cheers for the Canadians
all the allies who ended five
years of war and occupation
These were my heroes
the liberators of 1945
When they came back in 1980
it was scary
It didn't look like my memory
anymore
Could you be a bit more
explicit?
Mark, shut up
What I see takes me back
to 1980
which also takes me back
to 1945
It is a memory of memories
It's the essence of what
I mean in this choreography
and I don't see it, I...
Am I make myself clear?
Ok, we start from second times

I've done a lot of rowing
Eels won't bite you, Sissy
The Wrath of God
will smite the Godless
they will be exiled
to the outermost darkness
there shall be a walling
and a gnashing of teeth
So dear Congregation
it is written
Lord God, let your light
shine over this world
the light of Liberation
Breathe deeply
It must reach your lungs
It's really healthy
And Abraham made haste to
the tent of Sara, and sayeth
Make haste. Take the
three bushels of grain
I'm going home
Take the little boat
Henk will help you
Hold it firm
Come down, Jeroen
We need your help
Still some way to go

I want to give you
a word of warning
concerning the new guests here
our brave liberators
These healthy young lads
We have the side of the weak
The body has attractive
with us
Dear believers, be watchful
Protect your family
and daughter
Let us look to Him
our shepherd
He'll lead us from traps
drive the plage away
as He saved His Egyptian sons
so will there be salvation
for us
The old scripture tells
of this in the Revelations
And so let us serve the Lord...
The Lord is my shepherd...
Do you remember

You better come here
I've seen it Jeroen

We're not used to
that kind of thing here
Come on
It's wrong to keep the candy
you're given for yourself
The Lord says
Give unto your neighbor
and you shall receive
the Kingdom of God
You're right
It's hard to get in there
There are bodies down there
you know that?
They are holding
the seat belts
Still in parachute side
Do you understand, Jeroen?
Do you understand me?
Look, fish...
I should stay there
You see the plane was there
And when the current goes
it moves
And it sinks again
just like submarine

Don't be scary
I'd take care of you

And we'll title it
"The Liberation"
when you're ready
make a nice drawing with it
Try to write neatly
You've got all afternoon
children
Write what the Liberation
means for you
The re-gaining of Freedom
the victory over evil
Not everyone in history
can be witness
to such an important event
For me, Liberation means
Have you heard news
from home yet, Jeroen?
How are your parents?
There is enough food
in Amsterdam now, son
Don't worry
The whole Netherlands

This is a historical moment
Maybe the most important

You know what he said then?
I love you

And then he came very close
but I told him, No
What are you laughing at?
What's that?
Gertie's going out
with a soldier
This is a farewell present
Mind your own business, Elly
Little girls have big ears
Farewell present?
Get out of the way
Are you ok?
Are you hurt?
Walt...
My photo
What have you done with it?
Bloody boy
you're a bike-thief
And now it's broken too
then Moses stretched his hand
over the sea
the waves parted
And Israelites were able to cross
but when Pharaoh's army
followed
the waves came together again
and drowned them
Wake up, Jeroen
A letter from your mother
Maybe she'll come
and visit you
There you are
Read it out, boy
we're so curious to know
Jeroen darling
how big you are
You look so well
I missed you so
I'll never let you go again
You should know
I'm off to America
Can I open it, Mrs.?
It's for you
It's almost 300 years old
folks, look here
Nice, isn't it?
What a nice watch
Your tea, madam
He has grown a lot, hasn't he?
We're very grateful to you
It's nothing
It was just our duty
This beautiful present
It reconciles us
to the farewell
Jeroen has become like
our own child
And now we have to hurry
otherwise you'll miss the boat
Yes, it's a long journey ahead
I'll pack his things
He won't fit into this anymore
I know
that's why I put these in
He lived in these pants
Military thread
He learnt them at school
A souvenir
Isn't that nice?
I found these things here
They belonged to
one of the Canadian soldiers
Maybe you could take them
for Jeroen
For later, we don't use
this kind of thing
Amsterdam. Here we go
I love you
Come on, Jeroen
We have to hurry up
Bye
Jeroen
will you send us a photo?
You were going to ask me
something
That photo
I didn't hear Dad ask for that
Yes, I did
I heard
but I wanted to forget it
It was the only photo on the
whole roll that came out
Forget the step...
Use your basis of energy
Use your personal energy
Think of... let I told you

Thank you bring the freedom

Before we close this
Thanksgiving service
I want to give you
a word of warning
concerning the new guests here
our brave liberators
These healthy young lads
We have the side of the weak
The body has attractive
with us
Dear believers, be watchful
Protect your family
and daughter
Let us look to Him
our shepherd
He'll lead us from traps
drive the plage away
as He saved His Egyptian sons
so will there be salvation
for us
The old scripture tells
of this in the Revelations
And so let us serve the Lord...
The Lord is my shepherd...
Do you remember

Do you remember? At beach
Yes
You still want to go see that
Yes
I'll meet you later
at the beach

I have to...
You better come here
I've seen it Jeroen
and I noticed it earlier
We're not used to
that kind of thing here
Come on
It's wrong to keep the candy
you're given for yourself
The Lord says
Give unto your neighbor
and you shall receive
the Kingdom of God
You're right
It's hard to get in there
There are bodies down there
you know that?
They are holding
the seat belts
Still in parachute side
Do you understand, Jeroen?
Do you understand me?
Look, fish...
I should stay there
You see the plane was there
And when the current goes
it moves
And it sinks again
just like submarine
you know
Don't be scary
I'd take care of you
I'll right here
Don't rushing
You gonna like go smoothly
That's right
Now, smile
You got treat it gently

Please, don't forget your name
on the top
And we'll title it
"The Liberation"
when you're ready
make a nice drawing with it
Try to write neatly
You've got all afternoon
children
Write what the Liberation
means for you
The re-gaining of Freedom
the victory over evil
Not everyone in history
can be witness
to such an important event
For me, Liberation means
Have you heard news
from home yet, Jeroen?
How are your parents?
There is enough food
in Amsterdam now, son
Don't worry
The whole Netherlands
are liberated
This is a historical moment
Maybe the most important
in your life
You won't ever forget that
young man?
No, sir
You can go now, son
Yes, sir
Bye, Jeroen

Friend

God bless
Yes
Beautiful, isn't it?
Gorgeous

You know what he said then?
I love you
I love you
And then he came very close
but I told him, No
What are you laughing at?
What's that?
Gertie's going out
with a soldier
This is a farewell present
Mind your own business, Elly
Little girls have big ears
Farewell present?
Get out of the way
Are you ok?
Are you hurt?
Walt...
My photo
What have you done with it?
Bloody boy
you're a bike-thief
And now it's broken too
then Moses stretched his hand
over the sea
the waves parted
And Israelites were able to cross
but when Pharaoh's army
followed
the waves came together again
and drowned them
Wake up, Jeroen
A letter from your mother
Maybe she'll come
and visit you
There you are
Read it out, boy
we're so curious to know
Jeroen darling
how big you are
You look so well
I missed you so
I'll never let you go again
You should know
I'm off to America
Can I open it, Mrs.?
It's for you
It's almost 300 years old
folks, look here
Nice, isn't it?
What a nice watch
Your tea, madam
He has grown a lot, hasn't he?
We're very grateful to you
It's nothing
It was just our duty
This beautiful present
It reconciles us
to the farewell
Jeroen has become like
our own child
And now we have to hurry
otherwise you'll miss the boat
Yes, it's a long journey ahead
I'll pack his things
He won't fit into this anymore
I know
that's why I put these in
He lived in these pants
Military thread
He learnt them at school
A souvenir
Isn't that nice?
I found these things here
They belonged to
one of the Canadian soldiers
Maybe you could take them
for Jeroen
For later, we don't use
this kind of thing
Amsterdam. Here we go
I love you
Come on, Jeroen
We have to hurry up
Bye
Jeroen
will you send us a photo?
You were going to ask me
something
That photo
I didn't hear Dad ask for that
Yes, I did
I heard
but I wanted to forget it
It was the only photo on the
whole roll that came out
Forget the step...
Use your basis of energy
Use your personal energy
Think of... let I told you
Think the freedom, It's all up
Ok, you mark this
Make me happy
Alright?
Let I see
who's the new generation
Done it
And you both...
ok, here we go
you spire great
Just rehearsal
Alright, you concentrate
Here we go
The end
