Kif Tebbi


If you come to Amsterdam visit the old filmmuseum in the Vondelpark -yes our 'central park', the biggest park in town- that is not only beautiful but has one of the largest movie collections in Europe. Kif Tebbi (Mario Camerini 1927) is set in 1911, when Italy was at war with the Ottoman empire in Libya. An Arab nobleman with western sympathies is threatened by the Turks. The Italian troups rescue him at last and he marries his desert girl. A wonderful and interesting movie that was shown for the first time fully restored with live music by Yaniv Jachum (saxophone), Martin de Ruiter (bandoneón) and Erik Winkelmann (bas).
