The German occupation of the Netherlands during World War II left a lasting mark on Dutch memory and culture. This book is the first to explore depictions of that period in films made a generation later between 1962 and 1986. As Dutch public opinion towards the war altered over the postwar decades the historical trajectory of Dutch recovery and reconstruction-political economic and most complicated of all psychological-came to be revealed often unconsciously in the films of the period. |Images of Occupation in Dutch Film Memory Myth and the Cultural Legacy of War
