Finding Her is based on the true story of Lienke and Guus Hagers, the love of each others’ lives. During the Second World War when the Dutch East Indies is in turmoil, they lose all they possess; worse, they lose one another. Guus, one of the best fighter pilots of the Royal Dutch Indies Airways, is sent on a short mission to Australia. Before he is able to return, Japan invades the Dutch East Indies and Lienke is imprisoned. For three years, the quiet, dauntless pilot fights to return to Java, and his wife. Everything he does from then is done in the cause of finding her.
