NRAt the request of Dutch documentary filmmaker Judith de Leeuw, the Dutch prominent theatre director Ruut Weissman is directing a solo performance about the power relationship between a teacher and a student, between an actress and a director. Both Ruut Weissman and actress Harriët Stroet have personal experiences with this theme. The documentary shows how the mutual relationships between director, documentary filmmaker and actress are brought into sharp focus during rehearsals and how the events on and off stage are always intertwined.

6.0Registration of the second theatre program by the Dutch comedy duo Droog Brood (Bas Hoeflaak and Peter van de Witte). The show is a sum of apparently separate scenes that show the human struggle and the desire for affection. Misunderstandings and clumsiness determine our interactions with each other, while meanwhile there is always the consciousness that love will bring us the deepest happiness. But affection is always present. The characters in this show fail, but ultimately they find an answer in the simplicity of the moment.
