Remy van Heugten / NL, 2023 / 100 min.
What happens when you think capitalism solves everything and believe every word on social media? When you think happiness is for beautiful people and white males are the pinnacle of creation? You end up with Jerry. And Jerry is angry. A colourful, surreal warning based on a Gustaaf Peek script.
7-year-old Hooligan Jerry (Liam Jeans) was born with a deformed mouth and thinks there is little room for him in a world in which property and appearances rule. His unfulfilled desires stack up and only his independent, strong mother Abbey (Maartje Remmers) provides unconditional support. When Jerry gets new teeth and Abbey starts to distance herself from him, the sensitive boy is pitched into a dangerous freefall. Also features Leopold Witte and Frederike van Oordt’s debut.
