Henk and Annie Get New Skates

A nostalgic look at Dutch life and the culture of ice skating in Holland. Henk and Annie have always wanted to learn to skate but the canals have not frozen in their lifetime of 11 years. Finally the canals are frozen for the first time in 11 years, but the shops have sold out of skates. Grandfather (Opa in Dutch) finds a solution. This touching story gives you a glimpse into the Dutch culture, family life and values, and what ice skating has meant to families in Holland for hundreds of years.
