Pieter, a 56-year-old writer, suffers from a personality change caused by the brain damage inflicted by a tumor. His wife Annette must learn to live with her new husband. Filmed before, during and after Pieter’s brain surgery, this film shows us how fragile our personality is and how closely it is connected with our physical brain.
