Kan Ik Dier

About This Movie

Kan Ik Dier is one of those animations that really catches you off guard. It’s a response to Marc Mulders' painting, Grond In Christus II, and dives deep into the critique of modern Church values—or the lack thereof. The animation carries a somber, almost haunting feel, mirroring the weight of its themes about suffering and social neglect. The pacing is deliberate, allowing the viewer to linger over each frame. The visuals are striking, almost like a living painting, and there’s a rawness to the emotional expression that sticks with you. You feel the tension between faith and social responsibility throughout, which makes it distinctive in the animated landscape. Not your typical family fare, that's for sure.
