FICTION
Hopeful films that travel and move beyond translation.
Exit
Writer / Director · 2016
An exercise in subtext and speed: written, shot and edited in two weeks. Hidde Simons and Thomas Wander give excellent performances, digging into everything left unsaid in what looks, at first glance, like a casual conversation.
Sede de Fúria
Writer / Director
Sede de Fúria started with a bet. When someone heard about the plans for EXIT, they challenged Wiebe to shoot a film during his three-day visit to São Paulo.
He had two months to pull it off. He wrote a script about extreme confessions, found a production company willing to help (Trust Filmes) and discovered two great actors, Isabella Lemos and Guilherme Chelucci.
The film was shot in a single night, in a language he didn’t speak, with a fantastic crew he’d met only hours before.
Éénnachtsliefde
Writer / Director · 2015
A duet in dialogue: two characters trying to impress each other with wit and secrets. Gaite Jansen and Wieger Windhorst took it to the next level.
It premiered at the Cannes Short Film Corner in 2015 and caught the eye of a Japanese film fanatic, leading to a screening of all of Wiebe’s short films to date in Tokyo in 2017.
Vox Scripta
Writer / Director · 2011
A fairy tale about a young illiterate librarian who discovers his gift for storytelling while falling in love, complete with dream sequences of swimming through the library, made on a budget of €1,200.
It won Best Film, Best Director and Best Actor (Jim Deddes) at the Lezen & Schrijven Film Awards, a competition for films about illiteracy within the Netherlands Film Festival.
