About
In 1869, a young woman from a wealthy Dutch family struggles with grief and desire under her strictly religious family's scrutiny.
In 1869, Hedwig (Renée Soutendijk), a young woman from a wealthy, upper-middle-class Dutch family, is grieving the loss of her mother. She finds solace in Alice in Wonderland, the last book her mother read to her. At the cemetery she meets Johan (Erik van 't Wout), and an intense attraction grows between them. Hedwig's sexual fantasies are discovered by her strictly religious family, and her governess shames her. The film, directed by Nouchka van Brakel, is based on Frederik van Eeden's novel.
Based on Van de koele meren des doods
