Op Hoop van Zegen

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The leading Dutch dramatist at the close of the 19th century was Herman Heijermans (18641924), a writer of strong realistic and socialistic tendencies who single-handedly brought Dutch theatre into the modern time. His fishermen's tragedy Op hoop van zegen ("Trusting Our Fate in the Hands of God"), which is still staged, remains his most popular play.

There are four films based on the play.
