Buster Keaton, Mary Pickford, Asta Nielsen, Fritz Lang, Mabel Normand, and Oliver Hardy: all big names coming along during NSFF. Rather discover something new? The festival challenges visitors with programs never seen before in the Netherlands. Extra fun: all films will be accompanied by live music performed by renowned international film musicians.

During the festival and throughout the year, the NSFF is committed to making this cinematic heritage accessible through film screenings, educational projects, and lectures. The creativity and innovation of this oldest form of storytelling deserves to be shown! Stories are told without words but with emotion, facial expressions, and live music. Come and see!
