Behind the Clouds the Sun Is Shining 1925 Directed by Willy Mullens Achter de wolken schijnt de zon

Educational film about the symptoms, treatment, and prevention of tuberculosis. Mr van den Heuvel, a cobbler, lives with his wife and two small children in a one-room hovel in a dingy alley. He wants to work, but is usually too tired and is continuously coughing. He ignores the advice of his doctor to go to a health centre. His little daughter, Annetje, is not well either. At school she is listless, never wanting to play with her classmates. A visiting school doctor examines the girl and gives her a note for her parents, advising them to consult their doctor. Father considers this as nonsense.
