Six Dutch directors unleash their worst nightmares — and Amsterdam might not survive.
Season 1 • Episode 6
LatestThe folkloric horror film Witte Wieven is set in the Middle Ages. Frieda lives in a poor, God-fearing community where men hold all the power. Women are valued only for bearing children, and that’s precisely what Frieda has been unable to do. On the advice of the local priest, she performs a ritual to determine her fertility, but she is then attacked by the village lecher, Gelo. She flees into the Forest of Wandering, a place inhabited by the mist devils, from which no woman has ever returned. When Frieda does make her way back to the village, her faith—and that of her hostile neighbors—is put to the ultimate test.
A manless world, a nuclear missile on Amsterdam, a collective brainwash, and suffering as a recipe for success. Six filmmakers drag the viewer into their most terrifying fantasies.
