Ben Sombogaart, director / The Netherlands, 2009
Dutch w/ English subtitles / 130 minutes |
Based on the true story of the
1953 “Last Great Air Race” from England to
New Zealand that carried young Dutch adults fleeing the
lingering trauma of WW II, and devastating North Sea floods.
Dubbed the “bride flight” because many of
the women were joining their already-settled fiancés,
this sweeping melodrama brilliantly switches between the
‘50s, ‘60s, and present, and follows the friendships
between three women -- shy Ada, sensible Marjorie, and
sophisticated Esther.
This screening is made possible, in part, through the
support of the Kingdom of the Netherlands Consulate General—Miami.
Jill Rosenstein, PBJFF Screening Committee
co-chairperson, will lead a discussion following the show
at the Cobb Downtown.
Wendy Honig, PBJFF Screening Committee member, will lead
a discussion following the show at the Regal Delray.
Cobb Downtown at the Gardens, December 7, 7:20 pm
Regal Delray 18, Thursday, Dec. 9, 7:20 pm
Online sales are now closed. Individual tickets are available
at the theatre the day of the show. |
