Chasing Reels Indie film marathon

Chasing Reels: a premiere-marathon in Louis Hartlooper Complex with three of the best indiefilms that have never seen the white screen in the Netherlands. No blockbusters, no headliners, but an exciting selection from the grand indie filmscene. Beautiful, good international indiefilms that made an impression at festivals like South by Southwest and Toronto International Film Festival and that you will now be able to see in Dutch cinemas for the very first time.

'Hunt For The Wilderpeople'. (Taika Waititi)
The first movie in our indie film marathon is 'Hunt for the Wilderpeople'!
Ricky (Julian Dennison) is a defiant young city kid who finds himself on the run with his cantankerous foster uncle (Sam Neill) in the wild New Zealand bush. A national manhunt ensues, and the two are forced to put aside their differences and work together in this hilarious and heartfelt adventure. Important to remember: 'Find water, get to higher ground, don't get naked'.

Una (Benedit Andrews)
Indiefilmqueen Rooney Mara (brilliant last year alone in Lion, Carol and more) plays Una, a young woman that unexpectedly arrives at an older man's (Ben Mendelsohn; The Dark Knight Rises, Star Wars Rogue One) workplace, looking for answers, the secrets of the past threaten to unravel his new life. Based on a play by David Harrower, this film made a deep impression at filmfestivals as Telluride, Toronto and London where international press praised both Mara and Mendelsohn’s best acting jobs so far.
