ABOUT THE FILM
FLEELAND is an intimate, raw, and visually expressive short film about a woman trapped between the safety of isolation and the terrifying vulnerability of human connection. Set against the windswept, stark landscapes of Vlieland—from silent dunes and dense woods to open seas and isolated roads—the protagonist travels to escape her past, only to confront her deepest fears: grief, shame, love, and the anger she carries within.
It is a deeply introspective visual poem dealing with themes of emotional safety, trauma, self-preservation, and womanhood.

Omschrijving
LOOKING FOR: DIRECTOR OF PHOTOGRAPHY
We are seeking an empathetic, visually ambitious Director of Photography to bring FLEELAND to life.
Creative Vision: We are looking for someone with grand ideas for the visuals on the island, while maintaining a sense of closeness and warmth. The film needs to feel deeply intimate yet visually striking—balancing handheld raw emotion with the grand, textured scale of the Vlieland’s natural elements.
Female / Non-Binary preferred: Due to the intimate nature of the story, personal themes surrounding womanhood, and scenes featuring partial/full nudity, I strongly prioritize female/non-binary crew for this role. Men can also apply if they feel like this role is for them!
