Growing up with Dutch series and films, Yassin Karmoudi saw his peers (Dutch Moroccans) always being portrayed as stereotypes. They were either a street thug or some suicide bomber who blew himself up halfway through the story. That kept him wondering if this was all Dutch Morrocans could represent. Join the panel where we discuss how to free films, series, and documentaries from stereotypes. Creating opportunities for artists with diverse backgrounds to tell their own authentic stories.
This event can only be attended physically at our studio. The recordings will be made available later on and can be viewed via dezwijger.nl/terugkijken or via our YouTube channel.
