Hou me vast - De Dijk

Hou me vast - De Dijk

2013 · 83 min · Documentary, Music

De Dijk has toured the Netherlands for almost 30 years. From Nijeveen to Bergen op Zoom, from Weert to Broek op Langedijk. In almost unchanged composition, this band has been able to bind an ever-wider audience. They grew up together and made each other better by working together in a unique way. While for the outside world Huub van der Lubbe is the face of the band, the band is mainly a collective inside: everything is jointly decided. The documentary shows the year in which they release their first international album Hold on Tight and which would be crowned with a performance with Solomon Burke in Paradiso. It is different - the morning of his arrival in Amsterdam, Solomon Burke dies at Schiphol. De Dijk is devastated: they lose a friend, but also a possible international dream is shattered.

Directed by Suzanne Raes

Josef Ganz, editor of trade journal Motor-Kritik, amazed Germany by appearing in a revolutionary tiny car in 1932. It was his dream: a people's car anyone can afford. The idea made its way to new Reichskanzler Adolf Hitler. But in Hitler's dream there was no place for Jewish inventor Ganz. This is the story of the man whose designs led to the invention of the Volkswagen Beetle, and who ultimately lost everything. In the film, Ganz's relatives and admirers bring his lost heritage back to life.
