From January 12 to 21, guests will be offered a film menu featuring exquisite dishes and beautiful short films from all over the world, from professional and amateur filmmakers.
Previous editions in Bergen were organized by Peter Bosman: “Watching films during dinner creates a special atmosphere, people started talking to each other, it’s a really great evening, everyone has a lot of food for conversation. All the visitors were very excited. Because there were so many short films “Different, there is always something that catches your attention. Plus, you see movies that you don’t see anywhere else. Very special, highly recommended.”
Watching movies and eating create a special atmosphere. Between movies you can enjoy delicious dishes and talk about movies with your friends. Tickets can be ordered via www.hollandfilmfestival.nl. Start at 6:00 pm. The selection of films was a surprise. There is at least one winner from last year. The films are all special. (Image: attached)
