Omgaan met geweld - Juliana Boys

Series, 1994, 30 min.

Drama in the form of a documentary is a reconstruction of the violent confrontation between two groups of Dutch youths. Somewhere on a new estate, a local soccer team is playing against the black players of the Juliana Boys. A controversial penalty leads to an explosion of violence that spreads like a oil slick to the nearby shopping centre. Fear, fury, bravura and mutual incomprehension ensure a fatal outcome. But who are the culprits and who are the victims? In the television film Juliana Boys, nine of those involved give evidence, each from his own perspective. Fragments are editing into a continuous story.
