WATERBOYS is a warm and amusing story of an estranged father and son who grow closer during a road trip from Amsterdam to Edinburgh. Partly influenced by the women they meet on the way and by the music and a concert of the renowned band The Waterboys. A story about fathers who need some growing up to do, and sons who should take life a lot less seriously.

Crime novelist Victor and his twenty-year-old cello playing son Zack both have become single. During a trip to Scotland they are forced to confront themselves and finally get to know each other. A funny and touching film about fathers who have to grow up and sons who should take life a little more easy.
