Jos Stelling's THE GIRL AND DEATH follows Nikolai, a Russian physician, as he revisits the hotel where he met the love of his life, half a century before. As Nikolai relives their brief tryst, a story unfolds of a love thwarted by the cares of this world. Meanwhile Nikolai's reasons for returning become increasingly clear.
Jos Stelling, Director
Jos Stelling needs little introduction. He is a Dutch director of international renown, and has received a litany of awards during a career spanning nearly 40 years. Even more remarkable is Stelling's status as an autodidact, having never studied at a film school. In addition to his work as a director, Stelling has served on the jury of numerous film festivals, is the owner of two arthouse cinemas and the founder of the 'Dutch Film Days' film festival.
