Description
In the mid-1980s, Tilburg seemed lost. The influence of Catholicism waned, and the disappearance of the textile industry literally left gaps in the city, lacking a true city center. This classic documentary takes you into the mood and atmosphere of Tilburg city life in the '80s. The black and white footage stimulates the imagination and presents a stark contrast to contemporary Tilburg. The film will be introduced by Teuntje van de Wouw.
