This poignant documentary explores the dramatic life of designer Aldo van den Nieuwelaar, the visionary creator of the legendary A’dammer cabinet that has been a staple in countless Dutch living rooms since the 1980s. Following the screening, director Harro Henkemans and Harm Scheltens will host a Q&A, diving into Aldo's journey, his artistic ideals, and the challenges he faced in a commercial world.
