RTM consists of films and projects from a broad range of makers who have a major connection to the city of Rotterdam. These makers are an eclectic mix of young/emerging talent and more experienced professionals, and established names of Rotterdam-linked filmmakers/artists who also work internationally.
In the films in this block, you will meet four distinctive makers, each of whom has created a portrait in documentary, fiction or experimental film in their own individual way. They investigate their topics and ideas through the camera, either up close and personal or as a fly on the wall, introducing us to four very different worlds.
Please note: for all films in this combined programme English subtitles are available, with the exception of SHE (this is an English-language film)
