About the author

Jerry is the name, online is my game. I'm a digital enthusiast, ranging from old skool gaming and Space Invaders to iPads and social media. The integration of digital elements in everyday life and art have my particular interest, and besides that I'm part time rockaholic.

Video Friday is a a collaboration between Overdose.am and Broadcast Amsterdam to bring you regular reports by local film-makers and exclusive clips from the Broadcast Amsterdam TV shows.

World Cinema Amsterdam

▶︎ Press play … because the film festival brings to you the best recent films from Latin America, Asia and Africa – films that will make you see, feel and experience how life is elsewhere. This year, nine films from nine different countries have been selected.

Best quotes: “Through the years I always watched films through the eyes of the audience. I also think about is, OK… will this work in an Amsterdam context?” – Raymond Walravens, director/curator of World Cinema Amsterdam
