Now working on the final edit of my new film and preparing the sound track, soon to be recorded in Rotterdam, in collaboration with Christiaan Verbeek, composer and instrumentalist.
Background:
Plans for a new movie emerged in 2019. I regularly started filming the images and performances which arose. Sometimes in collaboration with a small crew with DOP Claire Pijman. Later on I started filming myself. My desire was to film when images emerged over time, rather than working via a scenario.
Here are some images from the film

Two people wander through the mighty nature and the seasons. One old, the other young. For one, the suitcase represents a farewell, for the other, a future. The rough cut of the film is finished. Together with composer Christiaan Verbeek, we'll be working on the soundtrack—my voice, his music - 2026
The development of the plans for this new film was supported by a OCW project stipend of the VEVAM Fund in 2021.
The film making not according to a script was supported by the Mondriaan Fund in 2023.
At the end of December 2024, the Amsterdam Fund for the Arts awarded a stipend to edit the film and develop it into a first version until the start of post production. De Schepper Delft Stichting contributes financially in the creation of the soundtrack; a collaboration with Christiaan Verbeek.
