“Are You There? / Ik ben er even niet” the documentary by Maartje Nevejan that I worked on as researcher is nominated for a Gouden Kalf (Dutch Oscar).

The documentary is an essay about the influence of absence epilepsy on imagination, science and art that emerges from the inner worlds. It is the story of Nevejan herself and other children and young adults who suffer from epilepsy. A quest from all these astronauts of inner space. The film is produced by Ceruttifilm and VPRO. The film is in Dutch and has English subtitles.
