It is an appointment for a very particular examination of body and mind. Take a seat in a beach chair (keep your clothes on) and let our cinematic offerings take care of you. You might feel a bit cold, but we have blankets to make you comfortable. And as always: stay hydrated at the bar.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-large-font-size\">That filmmakers are interested in health is no surprise, but their approaches are full of invention and creativity. Through animation, we journey inside the body twice (not unlike <em>Once Upon a Time\u2026 Life<\/em>) to discover talking organs and cavity paintings. Of course we also turn our stethoscopes to mental and behavioural issues. We conduct an annual check-up on the failings of our medical systems, as well as a humorous take on a hospital stay that is so comfortable, the patient doesn\u2019t want to go home. We hope you feel the same, even after being confronted with the ultimate consequence of health issues: death. Or at least fake rumours of an untimely demise. Inevitably (although some will argue it was actually a curatorial choice), we end with a morbidly funny round of applause for the grim reaper.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-large-font-size\">For risks and side effects, ask your doctor or pharmacist. And most importantly: If the Shorts Night lasts for more than four hours, consult a health professional \u2013 or Lav Diaz.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-create-block-the-catcher-slider\"><figure class=\"tccSlides\"><div class=\"tccSlide\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"tccSlideImg\" src=\"https:\/\/plukdenacht.nl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/DoSomething_Still3.jpg\"\/><\/div><div class=\"tccSlide\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"tccSlideImg\" src=\"https:\/\/plukdenacht.nl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/02.webp\"\/><\/div><div class=\"tccSlide\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"tccSlideImg\" src=\"https:\/\/plukdenacht.nl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/caries_3-1.jpg\"\/><\/div><div class=\"tccSlide\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"tccSlideImg\" src=\"https:\/\/plukdenacht.nl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/Do-Something-01.png\"\/><\/div><div class=\"tccSlide\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"tccSlideImg\" src=\"https:\/\/plukdenacht.nl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/A-Son-a-Father.webp\"\/><\/div><div class=\"tccSlide\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"tccSlideImg\" src=\"https:\/\/plukdenacht.nl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/caries_4-1.jpg\"\/><\/div><div class=\"tccSlide\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"tccSlideImg\" src=\"https:\/\/plukdenacht.nl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/05-scaled.jpg\"\/><\/div><div class=\"tccSlide\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"tccSlideImg\" src=\"https:\/\/plukdenacht.nl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/caries_2-1.jpg\"\/><\/div><div class=\"tccSlide\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"tccSlideImg\" src=\"https:\/\/plukdenacht.nl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/01.jpg\"\/><\/div><div class=\"tccSlide\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"tccSlideImg\" src=\"https:\/\/plukdenacht.nl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/caries_1-1.jpg\"\/><\/div><div class=\"tccSlide\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"tccSlideImg\" src=\"https:\/\/plukdenacht.nl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/04-scaled.jpg\"\/><\/div><div class=\"tccSlide\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"tccSlideImg\" src=\"https:\/\/plukdenacht.nl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/DoSomething_Still4.jpg\"\/><\/div><\/figure><div class=\"slick-arrow-tcc slick-prev-tcc\"><span class=\"buttonMiddle\"><\/span><\/div><div class=\"slick-arrow-tcc slick-next-tcc\"><span class=\"buttonMiddle\"><\/span><\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n<section class=\"wp-block-create-block-the-catcher-spacer\"><div class=\"desktopSpace\" style=\"height:60px\"><\/div><div class=\"mobileSpace\" style=\"height:30px\"><\/div><\/section>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-columns is-layout-flex wp-container-core-columns-is-layout-9d6595d7 wp-block-columns-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\">\n<p><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/plukdenacht.nl\/en\/movie\/do-something\/\">Do Something<\/a><\/strong> | Sofija \u017divkovi\u0107 | 2024 | Germany | 12&#8242;<br>English, without subtitles<br>A red blood cell goes on a mission to see the brain.
