Plot
Waldemar, a young man from Suriname, meets middle-aged Dutch Rika and they fall in love. In pre-WWII Netherlands they could not be more different. The one Black, the other white, 17 years between them, and she already has four children by another man--but they love each other. When she falls pregnant by Waldemar, they choose each other despite the high price they must pay. They have a son, Waldy, their own 'Sonny Boy.' Then World War II breaks out and they risk their lives to save people in hiding--but not without major consequences.
