Waarom Wettelen

"Waarom Wettelen" presents an unconventional funeral, where family members, guests, and some professionals come together to fulfill Christine's unusual final wish: to be buried in Wettelen. An as yet unknown location.

Director Dimitri Verhulst, a well known Belgian writer, makes a strong debut, marked by a powerful and finely crafted script, which gradually immerses the audience into a surreal, darkly funny reality.

The film is humorous, poetic, and moving with grace. The cinematography beautifully captures the typically Belgian and atypical locations. I would definitely recommend thanks to Verhulst's fresh approach.
