Marking the commemorative year 75 Years of Moluccans in Amsterdam, the project is produced in collaboration with the City of Amsterdam. It highlights the shared history of Moluccan Amsterdammers 75 years after their arrival in the Netherlands, examining a mutual history rooted in a colonial past that continues in the city today.
