PLUK DE NACHT | Open Air Film Festival Amsterdam

Out in the open air, rain or shine, the film must show when the sun goes down. Last night was my second night at the Pluk de Nacht (‘Seize the Night’) film festival, and it won’t be my last. The open space was jam packed with people in lawn chairs, benches, make shift seating and a fleet of late comers were standing all around, all there for the screening of This American Life TV stories.

Another must see film I caught at the festival is the clay-mated feature Mary and Max. A tale about an unlikely pen-friendship between two different people, based on a true story.

Along side the big screen, the festival site has been hosting Artist in Focus, installations, workshops and more, for the full list click here.

If you’re in Amsterdam check out the program for the remaining nights, the festival wraps up this Sunday. Shorts, feature films and disco in the open air. Free entry, and if you’re there before they run out, lawn chairs and benches are up for grabs and blankets are available for renting.
