The Healers

About This Movie

The Healers is an intriguing exploration of memory and nightlife in mid-90s Rotterdam, presented in a triptych that dissects the experience of a night out. It does so by peeling back layers usually combined in cinema, creating a fragmented yet cohesive atmosphere that captures the thrill and chaos of the party scene. The pacing is deliberately uneven, echoing the highs and lows of the nightlife, and the location feels almost like a character itself, alive with energy and nostalgia. It may lack conventional narrative structure, but that's what makes it stand out; it invites you to immerse yourself in the experience rather than follow a traditional plot.

The Healers is quite rare on physical formats, making it a bit of a gem for collectors. Limited releases have appeared, but they’re often hard to find, especially in good condition. Its unique structure and atmosphere garner interest among collectors who appreciate experimental cinema and the nuances of nightlife portrayed in film. The scarcity adds to its allure, as it’s not something you come across every day in typical collections.
