De vlinder tilt de kat op
Ciske the Rat
Guido Pieters
Danny de Munk, Willeke van Ammelrooy
Lovable Amsterdam street urchin, 11 year old Ciske is nevertheless much in need of love as the Dutch 1984 title suggests. He is a scamp with a heart of gold. He causes havoc in the classroom pouring ink over his teacher yet when a polio-crippled boy joins the class Ciske is one of the only children to befriend him and is bullied as a result. His mother works in a bar and Ciske helps out often late into the night - his father is at sea and his mother supplements her income with prostitution. Ciske is also a very angry young man and he smoulders with rage at life's injustices.
Ciske the Rat
Het dak van de Walvis
Raúl Ruiz
Willeke van Ammelrooy, Jean Badin
A parody of anthropology, linguistics, and cultural imperialism. The film follows an unlikely team of linguists into the wilds of an ersatz Patagonia to study the last speakers of a dying language. That language apparently consists of a single word, which therefore means everything.
On Top of the Whale
One People
Pim de la Parra
Willeke van Ammelrooy, Borger Breeveld
Back in his native Suriname to see his dying mother, an Afro-Surinamese student from the Netherlands’ former colony finds himself torn between his Amsterdam-based life with his white Dutch girlfriend and a future in his newly independent homeland when he falls for a local Hindostani nurse.
One People
Rotterdam-Europoort
Joris Ivens
Willeke van Ammelrooy, Karel Kneulman
Instructional film about the (former) biggest harbour in the world, with a hybrid format. Well known Ivens themes are revisited, like The Flying Dutchman in the fiction part of the film, who returns to the modern day Rotterdam, that has recovered very well after the devastating bombardments in the second world war.
Rotterdam-Europoort
The Lake House
Alejandro Agresti
Киану Ривз, Sandra Bullock

The Lake House
De Inbreker
Frans Weisz
Rijk de Gooyer, Jon Bluming

After his release from prison, Glimmie plans his revenge with some help from a young cleaning girl called Slofje.
The Burglar
De mantel der liefde
Adriaan Ditvoorst
Willeke van Ammelrooy, Marjan Berk
De Mantel der Liefde is a bizarre, over the top and at times hilarious settling of scores with the Catholic Church, commercial movie culture and 1970's petit bourgeois Dutch culture in general.
The Mantle of Love
Alicia
Wim Verstappen
Willeke van Ammelrooy, Hugo Metsers
