97% (Short film)

Via an app on his phone, Bert discovers that a 97% love match is near. Will he find her before the subway reaches the end of the line?

In the past years 97% (the dutch submission for the oscars 2014) has been selected for more than 140 international film festivals including Aspen Shortfest, Sapporo International Short Film Festival and the Asiana International Short Film Festival, winning numerous awards on it’s way. After being sold to Canal+ and other tv stations around the world it’s online release quickly became a Vimeo Staffpick and it was part of the BEST of Staff Picks: October 2015: vimeo.com/blog/post/best-of-staff-picks-october-2015
