A young woman is awakened to a world of cruelty, shadowy passions and sensuality.
Crepuscule
Man
An impressionistic experimental drama. A woman walks a fine line between sanity and madness in a world of constant twilight. She works at a filling station and lives a life of emotional isolation. No one seems to pay attention to her, and she lives in a run-down flat that looks as if it's decaying before our eyes. As the woman wrestles with the demons that are taking hold within her mind, she frequently confronts herself in the mirror, often while naked.

Leon Mortier, a wealthy publisher, whilst driving through the forest one day, stops when he sees Lulu walking down the long narrow road. She gets into the car. Leon is amused and intrigued by her.

On Stage
On Stage is a fake documentary about a promising five-headed cabaret company at the Cabaret Academy, who after their graduation are signed up by an impresario. The latter wants to launch them as real stars, but the troupe appears to be less close-knit than expected, when machinations and mutual competition drive the friends apart and one person is even victimised. The actors really graduated from the Academy in 2003.
Quicksand
van Marlo
For all Frits, a farmer's son, knows, his mother died when giving birth to him. He and his father make up a strong team. In the literal and figurative sense, because his father not only teaches him to milk the cows and hunt, he is also the coach of his soccer team. The happy tide turns when the boy turns eighteen and is scouted as a promising soccer talent. Suddenly, Frits's future is no longer with his father on the farm, but on the green grass of the Nijmegen soccer club NEC. His son's splendid soccer career may be the crowning glory of the farmer's hard work, but he is afraid he will also lose his only child. Desperate, he reveals the lie with which he raised his son. Frits is bewildered and makes a dramatic decision.
Платье
Stratenmaker
В этой истории смешалось все – страсть, секс, насилие и абсурд. А главным героем, центром всех событий стало обычное платье. Рисунок ткани для него придумал дизайнер-неудачник, модельер нарисовал простенький фасончик, и платье появилось в магазине, где его и купила одна из женщин. Но дама недолго радовалась обновке - она умерла. Платье улетает с порывом ветра, чтобы продолжить свой жутковато-мистический путь - оно становится фетишем маньяка-проводника, причиной увольнения и разрушения судьбы чиновника с фабрики. Окончание "жизни" платья символично - оно испепеляется в пламени крематория вместе с бомжихой, которая украла наряд, прельстившись золотыми листьями...
Играй или умри
Phys. Ed. Teacher
Главный герой фильма старшеклассник Кис влюблен в своего одноклассника Шарля. Они сидят вместе за одной партой. Шарль — красавчик, любимчик одноклассников и естественно хулиган, а Кис — отличник и тихоня, над которым все зло подшучивают и издеваются, в том числе и Шарль, не подозревая, что Кис в него влюблен. Не по своей воле подросток оказывается среди хулиганов с их причудливо-неоднозначными психо-сексуальными играми и авантюрами. Но проходит время и о чудо, Кису кажется удается завоевать внимание и расположенность Шарля. Однажды, когда дома не было родителей, Кис приглашает Шарля к себе в гости. Кумир приходит к нему домой и… кто бы мог подумать, что драма плавно перерастет в триллер, в котором хэппи энда не будет…
Passengers

Deed Undone
Clemens
Frans van de Staak, Holland's most prominent avant-garde director, made this film "...about people who want to get something done. I leave out the why as well as the results. What's left is the moment of endeavour. There are two couples. The four characters are played by eight actors. There is little dialogue. Sometimes a couple does not seem to live together, just to be alive together in the same room. Each one of them at one time walks through an anymous part of Amsterdam. They put their feet down with a will, clicking their way through town. We do not know where or why they are going. To a meeting, to get some exercise, nowhere? They have difficulty in communicating. They leave notes to each other on the table rather than talk. The film sometimes mocks their intensity. It is surprising that such a strange film can keep the viewer's attention for an hour and a quarter. But it certainly does. (Dutch Fim 1988-89)
De deur van het huis
Johan
Two very different friends who share an apartment in Amsterdam have reached a dead end in their lives. The arrival of a parcel looks like an opportunity for a change.
Mercedes
Sakko
Dutch television film by Thomas Brasch.
Test Tube
Produced by De Appel, Amsterdam, while General Idea was in residence there, Test Tube was conceived as a program for television. Presented under the brand "The Color Bar Lounge," a cocktail bar in the mythical 1984 Miss General Idea Pavilion, the program is a hybrid of popular television formats […] and infomercial. […] Advertisements for the bar are placed throughout the program; a loaded word choice, full of double-entendres and innuendo, betrays the influence of both Dadaism and consumerism. This collapse of popular and high culture is central to General Idea's agenda, as Felix Partz observes: "You know, the mass media are like a vast pharmaceutical complex developing new cultural elixirs of an unprecedented intoxication…but art remains a curious and elitist drink. Despite its unique flavor and heady cultural properties, it has never effectively been exploited."
