A popular comedy in which the daughter of baker Peeters is set to get married with the son of innkeeper Janssens but then the parents start to argue and are opposed to the marriage but the couple elopes.

Sequel to the hugely popular folk comedy Janssens versus Peeters.

The first movie version, from the age of black & white, of Flemish (heimat-)author Ernest Claes' classical novel, titled after the nickname (Dutch 'the White', referring to a blond male) of the main character: a smart but naughty farmhand's son whose eternal mischief, pranks and disobedience drive his elders (especially teachers, family and father's grumpy employer, a rich farmer) and classmates to despair in a time when a boy's punishment was still inevitable, swift and often severe.
