Din (12) is the midmid of football club VC Baardwijk from Waalwijk. Three years ago, his parents separated. A period of uncertainty, quarrels, and unrest followed. Din remained silent and did not talk about his feelings. Still not. He never told his parents what this period was like for him. In the film Ref! Replacement! Din will, with the help of director Tim, also a child of divorced parents and a former football player, explain what was going on in his head when his parents divorced. Where the words are missing, the ball takes over. Din is not much of a talker, he prefers to let his feet do the talking.
