Documentary

The short documentary Bronbeek bijvoorbeeld sketches a portrait of KNIL (Royal Netherlands East Indies Army) veterans living out their last days in the Bronbeek home for retired servicemen in Arnhem. Here, the old soldiers live surrounded by memories of days gone by. Flags, uniforms, photos: all reminders of a world that no longer exists. The home is also a museum, its residents a part of the past on display.
