Joshua Richard van 't Hoff (1987) is an independent film director and producer from the Netherlands, who is also active as a scenarist, cinematographer, editor and actor. Born and raised in the city of Haarlem, filmmaking was early in his life; by bringing a video camera to high school he wanted to capture moments and portray individuals, by making videos with his siblings or friends he wanted to entertain. He discovered all stages of film production during a project for his higher education in journalism at the Amsterdam University of Applied Sciences, which made him realize that this art would become both his passion as well as his profession.
When a Haarlem cinema from 1915 was about to close, Van 't Hoff got inspired to make his first short film: Cinema Palace (2011). In the same year, he started his 6-month internship as a camera operator at the Royal Theatre Carré in Amsterdam for the Dutch television show De toegift vanuit Carré (2011). Starting to work as a freelance filmmaker after successfully finishing his internship, he remained active at the theatre for two more years while continuing to produce short films such as the award-winning Ruysdael (2012) - developing himself both artistically and commercially.
Waarheid & privacy in het Nationaal Archief (2015), Van 't Hoff's first documentary film with which he graduated from university, was broadcast on Dutch television and screened in the Netherlands and Israel. Since then, he has developed a stronger focus on his artistic side: his short films A Divided Whole (2018), Accelerate (2018) and The Path of the Greys (2018) were completed in the same year and have been screened and awarded at international film festivals. Later, he completed his documentary films Focus on Belarus (2020) and Volledig portret gezocht van Markéta Ledererová (2023). Currently, he is working on a documentary film about the Nazi German extermination camp Sobibór and several short films.- Jan Verkoren was born on 22 October 1919 in Haarlem, Noord-Holland, Netherlands.
