All shy people pass away. All at the same time, in one blow, all of them. A small community organizes a funeral for all its shy residents who have passed away. Everyone is eager to say something.
Directed by Joost van Hezik, The Funeral of the Shy leans on a strong ensemble — Ellen Parren, Nyncke Beekhuyzen, Eelco Smits — to carry a story that balances spectacle with character.
The film landed with audiences for its craft and performances, and remains one of the most talked-about screen titles of 2017.
