Synopsis

With the fall of the government, the Netherlands in 2012 will lack a true address to the nation. Yet, we have never so desperately yearned for a narrative of our fate and future direction. Against this backdrop, Tegenlicht offers its own address – two days before the elections – for a troubled nation. Ramsey Nasr, our national poet, serves as our guide. He leads us through the reality of the Netherlands at a pivotal moment.
