在这部托尼欧剧情片中,由荷兰同名小说《托尼欧安魂曲》改编，讲述了荷兰著名作家范德海伊顿的独生子托尼欧，在圣灵降临节的周日，骑着自行车在阿姆斯特丹大街上被撞倒，年仅21岁的他因伤过重不幸早逝。他的双亲伤心欲绝，深受打击。作家以安魂曲的形式，追溯了托尼欧生前种种偶然事件如何使他走向致死的车祸。
On 23 May 2010, 21-year-old Tonio van der Heijden (played by Chris Peters) was hit by a car and taken in a critical condition to hospital, where he died. A tragic event that drastically changed the lives of his parents (played by Pierre Bokma and Rifka Lodeizen), who watched their only son pass away in intensive care. Reminded of his life by everything around and inside them, Tonio's life left a legacy of phantom pain for his parents who mourn, and struggle to prevent their own lives from being dragged into a downward spiral of sorrow. A.F. Th. van der Heijden based his novel TONIO (de Bezige Bij) on the tragis accident that took the life of his only son. The book won the Libris Prize and the NS Publieksprijs (Public Award), and its author the prestigious P.C. Hooft Award. Over 200,000 copies of the book have been sold to date.
