SUMMARY:'Meer Dan Babi Pangang' Release
DESCRIPTION:Genre: documentary\nLength: 71 min.\nLanguage spoken: Dutch\, Cantonese \nIn More Than Babi Pangang\, the Chinese-Dutch documentary maker Julie Ng investigates the success and imminent demise of the Chinese-Indonesian restaurant\, based on Golden House\, her father’s restaurant in Rozenburg. What starts as a search for the origins of the dish babi pangang\, grows into a personal and emotional exploration of her cultural and culinary identity as a Chinese Dutchman. Why do Chinese-Indonesian restaurants serve dishes that Chinese people don’t eat at home? What does that say about adaptation\, perception and the way in which cultures relate to each other? And why is it that many Dutch people think of ‘the Chinese’ mainly as babi pangang – a dish that has emerged from the cross-pollination of three cultures: the Chinese\, the Indonesian and the Dutch. The dish has an Indian origin and name\, was adapted by Chinese restaurateurs and is fully tailored to the taste of their Dutch customers.      \nMore Than Babi Pangang is an ode to the first generation of Chinese Dutch people who worked hard to build an indispensable part of the Dutch street scene. At the same time\, it is an invitation to look beyond the takeaway menu.

SUMMARY:Ivens Meet China 2025: A Special Screening & Conversation with Director Zhang Tongdao
DESCRIPTION:Why did Joris Ivens spend fifty years filming China — and call it his second homeland? Haunted by this question\, Dutch filmmaker Rene Seegers retraces Ivens’ footsteps from Europe to Hong Kong and mainland China\, searching for the faces and places once captured on film. In uncovering forgotten encounters and hidden stories\, he reveals a profound bond between a filmmaker and a country that shaped a lifetime.\nAbout the Director\nFilm director and professor Zhang Tongdao specializes in human-oriented documentaries that allow their subjects to tell their own stories. He captures his protagonists with authenticity and a strong sense of lived reality.\nHe has conducted extensive research on Joris Ivens’ Chinese documentaries (1958–1976) and his final film\, A Tale of the Wind (1988)\, and created a four-part film on Ivens’ work in cooperation with René Seegers. His crew revisited locations featured in Ivens’ films and interviewed eyewitnesses\, including former crew members and individuals portrayed in the original documentaries.\nfree upon registration
