With Robert Zemeckis' Welcome to Marwen now playing in Dutch cinemas, we present an encore screening of the extraordinary 2010 documentary that introduced the world to Mark Hogancamp and his miniature world of Marwencol.

After suffering a brutal assault, Mark Hogancamp emerges from a coma with little memory of his previous life. On his path to recovery, he turns to art, constructing a miniature WW2 era Belgian town in his own backyard. Hogancamp populates the fictional Marwencol with action figures and Barbie dolls representing real people in his life and weaves complex cinematic stories to work through his personal trauma. When Hogancamp’s strange, evocative photographs of Marwencol are discovered by the art world, he’s forced to confront his fears and rejoin public life. Jeff Malmberg’s fascinating documentary invites us inside Hogancamp’s weird and wonderful dollhouses, peeling back the layers of his eccentric personality while exploring the therapeutic power of art. Watch the trailer.

Directed by Jeff Malmberg, 2010, USA, 83 min. In English.
