Three physically challenged young Dutchmen embark on a wine tour that secretly includes a visit to a brothel for the disabled. Josef is blind, Philip is paralysed from the neck down and Lars is in a wheelchair with a brain tumour. They are all virgins. Cue for laughter, tears and a bit of harmless naughtiness? Well, yes. But somehow Geoffrey Enthoven’s good-hearted film seems a little clumsy and predictable. At least it shows that the best people to laugh at disability are those who suffer from it, and that, no matter how well such people are cared for, there is always a huge emotional gap to be filled.
