Production

[edit]

Cast and crew consisted of amateurs. As most of them had daytime jobs, the film was mostly shot over weekends. Ronnie Montagne, who had studied pedagogy, played Mariken. The one-eyed Moenen was played by Arielle Bailleux, a young physicist. After shooting this film they both went to the United States to complete their doctorate degrees at Stanford University, California, and never acted again.[2]
