I am terrible at keeping news up to date. This is a retrospective post…
Trees of Rotterdam, the short film I made with Alice Ladenburg, premiered at the International Film Festival Rotterdam in January. It was paired with Carel van Hees’ beautiful documentary Berichten uit de Hunkerbunker, a moving portrait of a city through the eyes of an elderly woman living in the RVS apartments on the Beukelsdijk in Rotterdam. I absolutely loved Carel’s film, and it was a pleasure sharing the stage for the many Q&A sessions.
Overall, there were six sold-out screenings of the programme. The film will also be shown at a few more venues later in the year, to be confirmed.
Here are some photos. As ever, I’m not great at documenting things as they happen.
