Nerves

Every time Frisian gymnast Iris mounts the balance beam she gets nervous. Will she fall this time?
When Iris climbs onto the balance beam at the Frisian gymnastics championships in Dokkum she still needs to steady her nerves. Even the world’s best sometimes make a misstep. A combination of competition and poetic footage in an empty hall, and thoughts of success or falling as Iris explains how the nerves build.

 

 

Director Maaike Meindertsma will be in attendance for the screening on October 28th at Pathé Amsterdam Noord to answer all your questions!
