MASTER CLASS: THINK BIG

With Brimstone, Martin Koolhoven succeeded in making a Western of Hollywood proportions. Boasting a budget of almost €15 million and featuring stars Guy Pearce, Kit Harrington, Dakota Fanning, and our own Carice van Houten, one has to ask, ‘How did Koolhoven achieve this?’ Martin will tell you how to deal with intrusive producers, vain actors, obscure broadcasters, rigid funds, and financiers who do not keep to agreements. And about how sweet it tastes when the film that nobody seemed to want turns out to be a success. Martin also explains how he managed to realize this production: what choices and mistakes he made, and, most importantly, what lessons he learned. This Master Class will be in Dutch and is a must-attend for local film makers!
