Our Struggle: The End of The Netherlands Is Getting Better has been selected for the Netherlands Film Festival
This new documentary follows the final days of the most impactful social movement in the Netherlands of the last few decades. As the group prepares for their final action surrounding the Sinterklaas celebration, director Naomi White delves into the history of the movement, using archival footage and intimate interviews. We meet members of the movement and learn not only what their activism has yielded for our society, but also what it has cost them personally.
'Our Struggle: The End of the Netherlands Is Getting Better' is a unique, intimate look into the work of this movement, debunking many misconceptions about the group, the people behind the movement, and its methods and goals.
The documentary was produced by Interakt and Omroep ZWART and will be shown on NPO 2 and NPO Start this autumn.
