About The Vanishing
Rex and Saskia, a young couple in love, are on vacation when they stop at a busy service station. Saskia is abducted in broad daylight and three years pass with no answers or closure surrounding her disappearance. Rex has nearly given up all hope when he suddenly begins receiving letters from her abductor.
Directed by George Sluizer, The Vanishing leans on a strong ensemble — Bernard-Pierre Donnadieu, Gene Bervoets, Johanna ter Steege — 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 thriller titles of 1988.
