MENA MURIA
about the short film
Folding the flag ...
introduction
South Moluccan people in the Netherlands: a story so big that we thought it impossible to tell in it's full glory, even if we had hours. The best thing seemed to be to let that wish go, and just show a small part of story, so that maybe some of the rest would be suggested. That's why we made this 10 minute short...
This site provides information about the film, samples, backgrounds of it's makers, and will keep up with how the movie is faring.
