With great pleasure, we announce that our Opening, Closing and the first titles of our film programme for the fourth edition of IN-EDIT NL 2022 (1-10 April 2022 – Melkweg) are confirmed!

IN-EDIT NL opens with a story about friendships and pop music with the Dutch Premiere of Thomas Robahm and Aslaug Holm’s a-ha: The Movie, and closes with a poignant tale of Australia’s “Queen of Honky Tonk” in I’m Wanita. Additional film offerings cover everything from Soundcloud rap and spirituality, a dive into politically-charged field recording, and profiles of artists like Lukas Graham, Dinosaur Jr, and Sleaford Mods.
