Nick Jongerius is currently working on two international horror productions, with **The Crying Boy** receiving funding from Canada and the United States, while **Ratking** represents a second international co-production. This aligns with a broader movement in which Dutch genre films are slowly gaining ground, as illustrated by **Moloch** (2022) by Nico van den Brink and **Vleesdag** (2025) by Martijn Smits. Producer Monique van Kessel founded Make Way Film to support this development, while the Netherlands Film Fund, through a specialized consultant role—initially held by Robil Rahantoeknam, now continued by Gerwin Tamsma—is actively focusing on genre projects that break the dominance of Dutch arthouse drama.
