De storm (2009) - dvdr - ZARCK

A Dutch Navy lieutenant duly worries when his civilian brother Koos warns that their parental home is under threat from unprecedented storm tide, the start of 1953 disaster that flooded half of Zealand (southern Dutch coast) as the dikes broke. Convincing Air Force pilot mate Theo to fly a helicopter there, studly Aldo finds his family safe and dives to rescue from the flood young mother Julia. Despite storm warnings, she had left home to cycle to a party, only to be surprised like everyone, climbing higher at home wasn't enough as the sea rose, finally wrecking the very house, and the basket in which she had put her baby boy is last to be swept away. Julia stubbornly insists they keep searching at excessive peril and dire prospects. They find out only at a memorial 18 years later that he was stolen by another mother who had recently lost her own baby, and she raised Julia's to be a fine young man.
