Wen er maar aan (2026)

Actress M. (Maike Meijer) faces a convergence of crises: menopause, the loss of her steady role on a popular crime series, a teenage son who barely speaks to her, and a sex life that has evaporated. Determined to prove she still has a future, she embarks on a series of tentative reinventions — acting classes, a cautious new romance, and attempts to reconnect with her son — while navigating the quiet humiliations of middle age.

Director Albert Jan van Rees follows M.’s day‑to‑day struggles with a naturalistic lens, capturing both the mundane and the poignant as she searches for a version of herself that feels alive again.
