９０年にほぼ原型に近い形に修復された版（従って本篇の前に、そのいきさつの解説が若干つく）の公開によって、日本でもようやく一般に見られるようになったＪ・ヴィゴの傑作である。アタラント号とは、ル・アヴールとその上流の田舎町を往復している艀。その若き船長の新妻が都会の誘惑にかられ、パリに近づいた折りにこっそり抜け出すが、怒った夫は彼女を置いて出航する。しかし、愛妻なしの彼はまるで腑抜けで、急に川に飛び込み、彼女の幻影を見たりしている。一方、妻はひったくりにあい、帰るに帰れず、同船している老水夫ジュール親爺（Ｍ・シモン）により、ようやく探し出される。話は俗なものだが、詩的で自由奔放な表現、キャラクターが際立つ肉体性の把握、溢れるユーモア……映画の官能が蒸気となって観客を包み込んでしまう、これは聖なる映画と言えるかも知れない。何度観てもはぐらかされ、不安なときめきを覚える。幼い子供と遊ぶのに似た、つき詰めようのない快楽を帯びた映画。Ｍ・シモンの醜い外見に惑わされてはいけない。彼こそが天使だ。

So he has to find him at his extremely rural birthplace in 'la France profonde', which proves a torturous odyssey for the spoiled rich man; when he does get there his torment is far from over: the country bumpkin refuses to resume his slavish position now the shoe is on the other foot, so Fourchaume is dragged along in the boorish family life, and at times unable to control his temper, which may cost him more credit then he painstakingly builds up...

In this short film Bert Haanstra gives his vision - from the water – of a tranquil Holland. During filming he held the camera upside down and afterwards put the images ‘up right’ again in the film. By doing this, we see the ‘usual’ waterfront, but transformed by the rippling of the water. In this way Mirror of Holland became a modern looking experimental film. However this did not devalue the Dutch sentiment regarding waterfronts that are so trusted to so many.
A girl from the wrong side of the tracks is torn between true love and a life of sin.
