Oh my, a Dutch film that actually sounds good?! I get to watch a movie that's originally in my native language for perhaps the second time in my life, thanks for linking this :D

Edit: and it's on YouTube in full! Was wondering which streaming service I'd have to buy for this niche genre of Dutch sci-fi but that makes life easy: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4VrLQXR7mKU

Final update: well, that was certainly special. Favorite moment was 10:26–10:36 ^^. Don't think that comes fully across in the baked-in subtitles in English though. Overall it could have been an episode of Dark Mirror, just shorter. Thanks again for the tip :)


Glad to help.

I have to assume the Dutch movie industry just isn't too big.

I guess it's a side effect of America's media, but when I went to Europe including the Netherlands almost everyone spoke English at an almost native level.

It almost felt like playing a video game where there is an immersive mode you can just turn off if it gets too difficult ( subtitles in English at all public facilities).
