For forty years, the band Rowwen Hèze has been the sound of the countryside. The music is
passed down from generation to generation. As Rowwen Hèze prepares for their
biggest home gig ever, in honor of their 40th anniversary, the
dynamics between the band members are laid bare. What started as a friendship has
now become a marriage with its share of tension. By working on new
music, the band members try to find each other again and again.

Frontman Jack Poels (1957) has spent his entire career writing songs about the people in and around his
home village of America. With his small, meaningful descriptions, he captures the authenticity
of rural life at a time when the countryside is changing beyond recognition due to the decline of farming
and even the local dialect. For the first time, he decides to write a
song for his father, who died of MS when Jack was thirteen
years old. A tribute to his father and the village, which compels him more than ever to open his heart.
