Over Eco Shorts: (de)compression | Sprouts Film Festival 2026
— Peninsula | David Gašo | Dutch premiere | 2025 | Croatia | 19’A static, voyeuristic camera captures men and snails as they gather around a cruising spot in a small peninsular grove.— Force Times Displacement | Angel Wu | Dutch premiere | 2025 | Taiwan | 12’We work - but how does it work? Wu’s surreal animated provocation warps a physics formula into a critical examination of productivity.— The Perpetual Tapestry | Simone Hooymans | Dutch premiere | 2025 | Norway | 10’Everything is connected in this craft-infused animated tapestry of humanity’s continual rise and fall, set to the hum of bees.— There Will Come Soft Rains | Elham Ehsas | Dutch premiere | 2025 | UK | 15’Fearing that rising floodwaters will claim her father’s grave, Mira resolves to exhume his body. To do so, however, she must first reconnect with her estranged sister.— Chuuraa | Evgenia Arbugaeva | Dutch premiere | 2026 | UK | 18’Scientific fieldwork and Indigenous methodologies converge in this foreboding descent into the caves of the Siberian Arctic, the territory of the Sakha people, accompanied by the echoing drip of thawing permafrost.———————————————————"For five editions now, the team behind Sprouts has developed a recurring platform for fictional ecocinema and socially critical debut films. We have steadily grown into an interdisciplinary film festival, now present across six venues in three of Amsterdam’s city districts: Studio/K, Kriterion, De Uitkijk, Droog, MidWest, and QRU. While a five-year anniversary calls for celebration, each day we are reminded of why we felt the need for a festival like Sprouts in the first place. Autocrats, tech bros, and far-right factions continue to wreak havoc on our planet, disrupting ecosystems and undermining international law and human dignity. This is why we cherish the brave filmmakers of our 2026 edition so deeply: they defy systems to share bold, uncompromising visions. We also support the shaping of a new generation of green storytellers by hosting our very first Sprouts Eco Shorts Pitch and Industry Day. From 1 - 7 June, let us focus on bringing people together and inspiring one another to resist. Whether by visiting our free Eco Expo, joining our community dinners, attending outdoor screenings, supporting our fundraiser for Sudan, or simply watching a film together.

Over Kriterion
Kriterion is een onafhankelijke bioscoop en café aan de Roetersstraat, opgericht in 1945 en sindsdien gerund door studenten. Na de Tweede Wereldoorlog begonnen door voormalig verzetsstudenten, heeft de plek haar zelfstandige karakter door de decennia behouden. Het programma combineert actuele speelfilms met klassiekers, retrospectives en thematische series. Het café is ook buiten filmtijden open en vormt een ontmoetingsplek voor buurtbewoners en studenten. De studentencoöperatie die Kriterion beheert, maakt de plek organisatorisch afwijkend van commerciële bioscoopketens.
