In the battle for the Dutch East Indies, Dutch troops won the main prize in 1948. After a spectacular airborne landing, they conquer Jogjakarta, capital of the Republic of Indonesia, and capture President Sukarno. Hans Goedkoop's grandfather is in command and Hans follows in his footsteps. He visits a wayang play about the attack and speaks to Indonesian witnesses. The victory turns out to be short-lived. The Indonesians are not giving up the fight, the death tolls are rising and the international community is turning against Dutch action. Should the Netherlands give up the fight and should the Dutch leave the country, including Hans' grandfather?
