De Manager
Maartje Bakers | Dutch 2026 | 71 minutes | language: Dutch | subtitles: Geen
The Manager reveals the hidden, awkward, and sometimes bizarre rituals around performance reviews.
Through the eyes of the employee, we see how managers deal with expectations, egos, and corporate jargon, and we explore the surreal reality of work hierarchies. Beneath the formality lies a quiet need for genuine connection.

“In the documentary De Manager, managers look the viewer straight in the eye. It’s impressive that the filmmakers managed to get them in front of the camera.”
