Ik rouw van jouw

Development and realization funded by BNNVARA

Nellie Benner is 28 when her mother suddenly passes away. While grief rushes into her life with full force, it seems like everyone expects her to know how to mourn.

In "Ik rouw van jou," she explores the contradictions of losing a parent at a young age. All the trauma, tears, and low points, but also the strength, wisdom, and unleashed creativity. Can you become stronger and happier because of the death of someone you love the most? Can you turn your grief into something meaningful? Can grief sometimes just be there for a moment, and how do you share it without feeling embarrassed? Grieving. How do you do it?
