About the Film Player

With the Eye Film Player, we offer highlights from our film collection and unique films that you won't see anywhere else online. You'll find a special selection of graduation films from 65 years of Film Academy history, and the best that Dutch film has to offer, including George Sluizer (Spoorloos), Alex van Warmerdam (Abel), Sacha Polak (Dirty God) and Fiona Tan (Ascent). Discover controversial documentaries by Leonard Retel Helmrich about an Indonesian family in Jakarta or those by Ed van der Elsken in which he turns the camera on himself in Edam. Also watch silent films with specially composed music from the beginning of film history and (contemporary) classics by Yasujiro Ozu, Wong Kar Wai and Claire Denis.

Much of the selection is nowhere else to be seen online. The new selection can be followed via the Eye Film Player newsletter.
