Overview

Johan ten Berge is een jonge militair die als vrijwilliger bij de politionele acties 'naar huis' gaat, naar Indonesiƫ waar hij geboren en getogen is. De werkelijkheid van de oorlog met de vrijheidsstrijders neemt steeds gruwelijker vormen aan en Johan trekt zich daar innerlijk steeds meer van terug. Doordat plaatsen, geuren en mensen hem aan zijn jeugd doen denken realiseert hij zich steeds meer dat hij eigenlijk op zoek is naar Oeroeg, zijn jeugdvriendje en 'bloedbroeder' van toen.
