BosBros is producer of the family feature film The Indian. The almost 8 year old boy, Koos is trying really hard to look like his dad. The only problem is, his dad is Dutch, while Koos has been adopted and originates from Peru and is therefore small and colored. One day he meets a Peruvian boy, playing odd music in front of a supermarket. That’s when he realizes that he has different roots than his Dutch parents and he decides to give it all to become a true Native Latin-American…
