In the year 1669, the beautiful island of Texel was an important departure and arrival port for the Dutch East India Company (VOC). When the weather didn\'t allow sailing, the sailors would camp on the island, often accompanied by plenty of festivities. Michiel de Ruyter was also fond of a party, especially at the inn where Neeltje Bakker worked. After yet another exuberant celebration, Neeltje, while her husband Cornelis was at sea, became pregnant with Michiel\\\'s child. A few months later, Cornelis returns and notices something…
Neeltje is over eight months pregnant. Cornelis quickly does the math: this is not his baby! The love between Neeltje and Cornelis is unbreakable, so Cornelis sets his mind on finding Michiel. The admiral must disappear from their lives for good. Michiel soon catches wind of the furious Cornelis. Leaving the harbour on his ship is not an option, so Michiel must rely on one of Texel's best-kept secrets: the hidden exit.
