Spetters is a Dutch feature film from 1980, directed by Paul Verhoeven. Screenplay Gerard Soeteman and Jan Wolkers
The film is about three friends who try to break away from their small-town environment and a girl who wants to escape her life in a chip shop. One of the two screenwriters was Jan Wolkers, who caused a stir in the Netherlands with his books and films such as Turkish Delight. The film had attracted 1,124,025 (mostly young) visitors to the cinema at the end of 1980, but was unable to cover its costs, especially due to a budget overrun of at least one and a half million guilders. The film was blasted by the critics and loathed by the establishment. The coarse language, the many sex and violence scenes, and the immoral and pessimistic character of the film caused a lot of commotion in the Netherlands. People demonstrated at the cinemas and discouraged visitors from going to the movies. An action group was even founded that advocated a complete ban on the film.
The stills offered were used as promotional material for cinemas. Such an extensive set as offered is rare and of film historical value for film enthusiasts.
