Three Days of Fish

Three Days of Fish centres on 65-year-old Gerrie who lives abroad with his second wife and returns to Rotterdam for his annual health check-ups. There, he meets with his son, 45-year-old Dick, who yearns for quality time that his father stubbornly avoids. The title is a reference to the proverb that familial peace is best kept with short visits.
