Angst

Filmmaker Michiel van Erp follows Amsterdam inhabitants who struggle with various anxiety disorders as they attempt to overcome their fears. One of the inhabitants is a woman who must take extremely long showers to feel clean. Another one is a woman who was kidnapped by a terrorist group years ago, and another is a man who is so terrified of heights, he can’t be near his window. When released in Holland, ANGST caused quite a commotion and attracted huge crowds. Regular people realized they were dealing with similar problems. ANGST was sold out for many weeks, as people came face to face with their own mental illness. This film may change the way you see yourself.
