Roffa Mon Amour will bring you outdoor film nights from August 13-24 in Rotterdam. Self-described as “eccentric”, it is an interesting melting pot of eclectic films from all over the world, all shown in the open air.

Old films, new films, art-house films, cult films - there are so many genres and kinds to appeal to all tastes, no matter how unusual. All the films have English subtitles, making them ideal for expats.

Open-air cinema in Rotterdam

At BRUTUS in Rotterdam, the open-air cinema will be welcoming movie lovers from far and wide. There are three main categories at this year’s Roffa Mon Amour open-air film festival.

The categories are:

New Makers

The programming always looks for films by up-and-coming directors, particularly those who have released just one or two films to date.

Cinematic Favourites

Come and see classics, things that were likely to have been on your list of things to watch. This selection of films is by more established, well-known directors, but is inextricably linked to the films by the New Makers in terms of inspiration and influence. 

Cinema Concerts

Witness live electronic acts creating a score for short films, co-curated with artists from Operator and films from Go Short. These Cinema Concerts consist of two performances. 

Getting to Roffa Mon Amour open-air cinema

All the films are being screened at the BRUTUS art centre in Rotterdam, which is a 10-minute walk from Marconiplein metro station.

You can purchase tickets and explore the entire program on the Roffa Mon Amour website.
