Spoorloos
George Sluizer / NL, FR, 1988 / 106 min.
Tense film adaptation of Tim Krabbé’s novel The Golden Egg (published as The Vanishing), in which a young woman (Johanna ter Steege) disappears at a petrol station while on holiday in the South of France. Her boyfriend continues to search obsessively for her for years. Dutch classic, reissued in a 2K restored version.
Stanley Kubrick called it “the scariest film I ever saw” – no small compliment from the maker of The Shining. This psychological thriller by George Sluizer is certainly disturbing, oppressive and mysterious. The Vanishing is a nail-biting account, bursting with suppressed tension, of a sudden disappearance and the consequences for those left behind.
In Eye and in national cinemas.
In Spoorloos, Dutch and French are spoken. In the version with Dutch subtitles, only the French dialogue is translated. Spoorloos is also shown with English subtitles. For each show, you'll see NL or EN subtitles listed in the dropdown menu.
