Michiel de Ruyter (original title)“Wars are fought by many… history is made by few”
A naval hero more popular than the state is sent on an impossible mission.
Michiel de Ruyter (1607–1676) was the most passionate innovator of naval combat tactics, which made him the greatest naval hero in Dutch history. Because of his friendship with the republican De Witt brothers, his popularity became a threat to the House of Orange, and he was sent on an impossible mission.
Klaas de Jong: “I am delighted that Roel Reiné is directing this epic film. With the experience he has gained in the US, he is the right man for this spectacular film.”
