Remco, a fifty-year-old construction company owner, is celebrating his birthday. His wife announces she's leaving. Business partners, it turns out, have been scheming to force him out. Then both his mistresses walk through the door — one of them pregnant. Everything lands in one evening. Verhoeven runs it as farce, and at 55 minutes it moves. Stream Tricked online on iFILM.
