villas

Comedy about the post-war housing shortage.

Een koninkrijk voor een huis! is based on the Amsterdam city council’s decision to requisition rooms to house homeless people. Heintje Blom, a simple working woman, is told to move into a villa in a posh part of town. The inhabitants are none too pleased but in spite of the class division, a romance blossoms between the rich family’s son and Heintje’s daughter. The two families warm to each other in the end and the happy pair is united in wedded bliss.
