As a result, he seems doomed to spend his days in the sleepy village of Lomark, living a hopeless life. However, that changes when the charismatic and reckless newcomer Joe Speedboat (Tobias Kersloot) arrives. An unlikely friendship develops with Fransje. Will it help him realise his passionate dreams and satisfy his desire for the enchanting PJ (Qiqi van Boheemen)? Or is he just another project for the adventure-seeking Joe?
