BUMPERKLEEF (TAILGATE) is about a self-confident man, on his way – together with his family – for a Sunday visit to his parents. He gets into a traffic fight with another driver Ed, who in revenge starts to follow the family and confronts Hans with his ego. As Hans starts to lose control of the situation and his family, Ed pushes him until nothing but the fearful, vulnerable child he once was remains.
