FOG (coming soon)
a film by Tim de Vries & Ties Versteegh
Logline Embrace your inner child to defeat your shadows In short ‘This poetic ultra-short film is inspired on the song “Fog (again) Live” by Radiohead.’ ‘My hope is that this film serves as a catalyst, sparking introspection and dialogue within the audience. Is there a conversation you need to have with your younger self to make peace with your past? Perhaps there’s a lingering wound in need of healing, or a voice within you that’s yearning to be heard? Face your younger self; it’s like your best friend conveying a beautiful message, paving the way to a future lived side by side in harmony.’ ‘When I was around 20 years old, this song captivated me, its melodies weaving a vivid tapestry in my mind. I found myself immersed in a haunting vision: a young boy sprinting through an endless tunnel, his footsteps splashing in the water and echoing against the cold walls. Close behind him, children of his own age pursued, hurling rocks in a relentless chase. As the tunnel stretched on, it culminated in a deep waterfall cascading into a sky so luminous it was almost blinding.’ ‘For many years, this poignant imagery lingered with me. Its melancholy presence refused to fade. I felt a compelling urge to translate this vision into film, but first, I needed to decipher the story it was trying to tell me. In 2023, I penned down the narrative, and this is the result. It’s been the most personal project of my life so far in which my passion for music and film comes together.’ ‘I am immensely proud of this project and deeply grateful to everyone who contributed to making this film a reality.’ Ties CAST Antonio de Lima Atiesh van Hattem EXTRAS Thirza Nehemia Alisha Niels CREW Director | Tim de Vries Writer, Director & DoP | Ties Versteegh NSC Production company | Artcore Producer | Stefany Rietkerk 1st AD | Rob Blomkwist 1st AC | Robert Jaap de Lange 2nd AC | Carel van Gogh DIT | Christiaan vd Knoop Gaffer | Maarten van der Pluim Best Boy | Simon Ruesink Key Grip | Jelle van der Weiden Casting Agency | Jut & Jul Casting Casting Director | Madelief Blanken Stylist | Iris Vlutters PA | Gijs van Bruggen Child Guidance | Iris Vlutters Photographer | Robbert Jansen Post Production | Captcha!
