The script was written by De Waal and Hans Pos in collaboration with their production companies Screenpartners and Shooting Star Films. It received a Gouden Film award in 2007 and a MovieSquad Junior Award in 2008,[1] but was otherwise neither a critical nor a commercial success. Critic Jan Pieter Ekker of De Volkskrant felt the story was comparable to "cardboard" and that its low budget showed too much.[2]
Plot
Captain Rob has to babysit Stijn and Sandra, the children of his sister Marga, when he hears that a cargo of gold has been stolen when the ship sailed through a mysterious mist. He receives the mission to investigate the matter immediately and takes the children with him. Along his journey he meets the weatherwoman Paula. They eventually discover that the evil professor Lupardi and his assistant Yoto have stolen the gold to make an ultra crystal which can change the weather...
