Land of Dreams

After spending time in a Japanese internment camp in colonial Indonesia, Paula must adjust to her Frisian family after repatriation in 1946

It is 1946. Recently repatriated Paula is trying to feel at home in Friesland after her experiences in a Japanese internment camp. She is taken in by family she has never met before. Her presence is tolerated, but not fully accepted. Suspicion grows among the family when, since her arrival at the potato farm, brown rot is found on one of the potatoes.
