Candy-colored musical camp from Holland, inspired by a children's television show that aired during the '60s. Cheerful, no-nonsense Nurse Klivia (Loes Luca) runs a rest home for peculiar patients on a bustling side street. The antics of her charges — sweet-natured but graceless Jet (Tjitske Reidinga), who longs to be a performer; the Engineer (Beppe Costa), who's always cooking up some explosive concoction in the basement; and odd boys Bertus (Edo Brunner) and Bobby (Lennart Vader) — enrage their miserly landlord, Barend Boordevol (Paul Kooij), who lives in the attached house next door and is always trying to evict them. Even his
cat is nasty. Boordevol dreams...
