Four friends with a shared history. The film follows De Jeugd van Tegenwoordig as they prepare for their anniversary concerts.
In the year that De Jeugd van Tegenwoordig celebrates their twenty year anniversary, this documentary follows the band as they prepare for their anniversary concerts at the Ziggo Dome. Key moments from their career are re imagined with actors and archival footage. Interviews, memories, and imaginative reconstructions blend together, showing how the group has continued to reinvent themselves over two decades.
The Making of De Jeugd van Tegenwoordig is not a traditional music documentary. Rather than following a linear timeline, the film blends fact and fiction side by side.
Band members Wiwa, Vjèze Fur, Faberyayo, and Bas Bron reflect on their shared history, from the formation of the group to the impact of hits like Watskeburt?!. Their story unfolds through conversations, reenacted scenes, and archival footage.
By using actors to recreate moments from the past, the film shifts between memory and interpretation. What actually happened and what has been shaped by time is deliberately left open.
In this way, the documentary shows how De Jeugd van Tegenwoordig has been shaped by chaos, friendship, and imagination. Not as a fixed story, but as something that continues to evolve.
What is a film dome? Where can I park? What is there to eat and drink? Are there accessible toilets?
