27. De weg naar het Zuiden [2]

A travelogue originally made in three parts for the VPRO television network and later edited into a single film. It follows a journey from Amsterdam to the banks of the Nile, featuring encounters with people striving to carve out a place for themselves: squatters, travelers moving from rural areas to cities, from south to north. Johan van der Keuken described it as “a story of outward migration and inner alienation, but also a series of signs of life's resilience.”

On the occasion of the retrospective, Sabzian published an Issue featuring Van der Keuken’s writings, available in English, Dutch and French. A collection of texts on his work by various authors will be published in the coming weeks.
