The Making of De Jeugd van Tegenwoordig
The Making of De Jeugd van Tegenwoordig is not a traditional band biography, but a quirky, clever, and occasionally uncontrolled ride, just like the group itself: unpredictable, funny, sharp, and still in top form.
In the year that De Jeugd van Tegenwoordig celebrates its twentieth anniversary, The Making of De Jeugd van Tegenwoordig doesn't just take a look behind the scenes—it pulls open the emergency door and lets the smoke, memories, and myths roll out. Four friends, Wiwa, Vjèze Fur, Faberyayo, and Bas Bron, once brought together by chaos, have grown into a cultural phenomenon that has set the tone for two decades and influenced multiple generations. With hits like Watskeburt?!, they made their own mark on the music industry: creative, innovative, and humorous.
As the band works towards their anniversary concerts in the Ziggo Dome, defining moments from their career are brought back to life with actors and archive material, blurring fact and fiction in a witty and sometimes disruptive way. Interviews, memories, and fabrications flow effortlessly into each other, painting a picture of a group that continues to reinvent itself.
The Making of De Jeugd van Tegenwoordig is not a traditional band biography, but a quirky, clever, and occasionally uncontrolled ride, just like the group itself: unpredictable, funny, sharp, and still in top form.
