Winterland

The film follows the chaotic shoot of a Jules Verne–style period science-fiction film. Artificial, cardboard-like sets merge reality and fantasy as actors wander off into a forest; meanwhile Tuinder becomes entangled in conflicts on-set and a secret crush on lead actress Tara Elders. The layers are anchored by Tuinder’s reflective voice-over and his recurring character Sally de Winter, a platinum-haired girl in a pink dress carrying a mysterious suitcase.

But since he met fickle bitch Phileine in an Utrecht park, his flirting life is cut short while she cruelly plays with his feelings rather then his horny body.
