If not the best foreign film to be released in 1998, perhaps the best movie *in general* to be released that year, because there were so many duds in the Americas at the time that it was difficult to salvage anything redeemable!
You have a simple story; Circa The Netherlands, 1920s; A young man is accused of killing his father, and the story does a flashback from when he a was a child; Was this "dad" really a fatherly type, or a cruel, greedy baliff? Lots of twists; Sticks to the period, but also had a bold, Hichcockian feel.
