Banned from Arcadia

After the great disaster, raw materials have become scarce and a point system is introduced, the citizen score. The points determine what you can do and what you are entitled to. Everyone wants the best for their children and so does Pieter Hendriks. The Hendriks family is doing well, but then it turns out that father Pieter has messed with his daughters’ points to keep their score high. He hoped to give them freedom with this, but instead the whole family is now in trouble. Pieter is banished from Arcadia to the outside world that knows little hospitality. His family stays behind in Arcadia and gets demerit points for his fraud. The atmosphere is tense and the women are increasingly at odds with each other. How long will it take before everyone chooses for themselves?

Cast

The cast includes Monic Hendrickx, Melody Klaver, Natali Broods, Maarten Heijmans, Gene Bervoets, Ellie de Lange, Wim Opbrouck, Ilse de Rauw, Raouf Hadj Mohamed, Trine Thielen and Lynn Van Royen.
