Real-time ensemble drama begins filming in Rotterdam.
Peter Hoogendoorn’s debut feature, a real time ensemble drama produced by Keren Cogan Films and Phanta Film and co-producers Limited (France), Mindsmeet (Belgium) and Dutch broadcaster Avro has begun.
The film will be released in Dutch cinemas by Amstelfilm in 2014.
Set on a typical summer’s day, a devastating piece of news is delivered by two officers in a police car that changes the lives of a family forever. As the journey progresses, the vehicle becomes more crowded with family members and reveals their inner turmoil.
Hoogendoorn developed the script at the Binger Filmlab in Amsterdam. The project was presented at the CineMart at the International Film Festival Rotterdam in 2010. The film is supported by Eurimages, the Dutch Film Fund, Screen Flanders, Region Alsace and CoBO and will be distributed by Amstelfilm.

Amsterdam -- Romantic comedy "Love Is All" took home the Golden Calf for best Dutch feature Friday night as the Dutch Film Festival in Utrecht came to a close. Its helmer, Joram Lursen, received the award for best director.
"Love," a romantic comedy similar to the U.K.'s "Love Actually," stars Carice van Houten and, with 1.3 million admissions, is the biggest boxoffice hit in the Netherlands in recent years.
The festival jury, headed by former banker and film financier Frans Afman, was very critical of the quality of most of the Dutch features in competition, stating that many productions had not deserved financial support.
One of the highlights of the festival was opening night. While career achievement winner Rutger Hauer was not in town to receive his award, he sent along a short film in which he rides a bicycle through Amsterdam with Dutch Culture Minister Ronald Plasterk as his passenger.
