In his final film before being murdered in 2004, director Theo van Gogh (a distant relative of painter Vincent van Gogh) recounts the story of flamboyant Dutch politician Pim Fortuyn, who was assassinated during his 2002 run for office. With help from his teenage daughter (Caro Lenssen), a tabloid photographer (Thijs Römer) who snapped shots of the crime scene works to uncover the conspiracy that led to the candidate's death.

More interesting as historical document than as film. Helps us understand the nature of Dutch xenophobia.
Despite [numerous] shortcomings, there is a raw energy and zest at work here that makes the film interesting to watch throughout.
