Molukkers in Nederland: 70 jaar op weg naar huis(2021)

Molukkers in Nederland: 70 jaar op weg naar huis is a documentary series tracing seven decades of Moluccan life in the Netherlands. In 1951, thousands of Moluccans arrived, exiled from their homeland following Indonesia's independence. Director Coen Verbraak weaves together intimate interviews across generations, capturing the experiences of those who came as soldiers and their descendants born in Dutch society. The series explores themes of displacement, cultural identity, and the long struggle between maintaining heritage and building new lives. Through personal testimony, Molukkers in Nederland reveals how an entire community navigated involuntary exile, institutional challenges, and the complex question of belonging—whether home lies in memory or in the place where you've built your life.
