Frank Opperman is a chameleon who was just as convincing as the tormented reverend in Dominee Tienie as he was as the bumbling mechanic Ouboet in Orkney snork nie. His portrayal of these beloved characters has made him a national treasure. Frank doesn't just play a role - he becomes the character. Now, Frankie Opperman, director and Frank's son, has made an intimate documentary series about his father.
