The North Preview Screening with Q&A with director Bart Schrijver

Join us for a special preview screening of The North, Bart Schrijver’s acclaimed drama following former best friends Chris (Bart Harder) and Lluis (Carles Pulido), who reunite after a decade to hike Scotland’s West Highland Way and Cape Wrath Trail. Retracing the same 350-mile journey from their youth, the pair set out to reconnect over 30 days in the raw, majestic beauty of the Scottish Highlands—yet as Chris remains tethered to life back home, Lluis becomes determined to complete the trail, revealing deeper tensions beneath the surface.

Shot entirely on location and in chronological order, The North is a moving and visually stunning ode to friendship, solitude and the healing power of nature. Set against sweeping landscapes, unpredictable weather and chance encounters along the way, the film invites audiences on an intimate, immersive journey—one that quietly explores what it means to pause, reflect and truly listen.
