Marcel and Marijke were teenage sweethearts. Now 15 years have passed. They've both been married. They've both raised families. And Marcel has become Marcella. When Marijke seeks Marcella out after a forty-year absence, there is no question that the affections they enjoyed in 1964 are just as vital today, regardless of the changes that have intervened. The reunited couple decides to recommit to their relationship, move in together, meet each other's families and plan for marriage, overcoming a number of obstacles along the way. And though their remarkable story is the sort inspired by fairytales, their circumstances are decidedly true-to-life. Simply Love is the surprising sequel to Eveline van Dijck's 1993 documentary, A Change of View, which followed Marcel during her transition to Marcella.
