Sa ngailearaí uachtair téann Stiofán suas ar uchtbhalla atá trí stór os cionn na talún agus chuile chuma air go bhfuil sé chun lámh a chur ina bhás féin. Tá súile chuile dhuine sa músaem air.

The Van Gogh Museum in Amsterdam is one of the most famous museums in the world. Hundreds visit it each day. Stiofán Ó hAnluain, who has Alzheimer’s and who has escaped from the nursing home, is amongst those on this particular day.
