This December, two mosaic films about family, Schitterend and Dit is geen Kerstfilm, bring a mix of tragicomedy and satire to the screen, both written by Lotte Tabbers. Schitterend, a remake of the German film Wunderschön, offers a tragicomic portrayal of women from different generations, while Dit is geen Kerstfilm, a collaboration with Isis Mihrimah Cabolet, focuses on current sensitive topics through the lens of humor. Tabbers, who recently won the Golden Calf for the screenplay of Dit is geen Kerstfilm, emphasizes the thematic focus of mosaic films on character over plot. Both films are available to watch this month, with Dit is geen Kerstfilm available on Prime Video and Schitterend in theaters.
