Britt for President De Warme Winkel

Unburdened by any administrative knowledge or skill, unchained by stifling party discipline and completely free of old-fashioned moral principles, this breath of fresh air goes in with both feet.

Often it seems that The Hague pulls the strings, and sometimes Brussels, but Britt starts locally: in the cradle of democracy where big electoral words crash against reality and part-time political talents try to get the most out of the idealistic jug.

Meanwhile, divides are deepening and bubbles are getting stronger, and we stand with our hands in our hair watching how vulnerable our democracy actually is when disruptive forces break the rules of the game.

With this discursive knee-slapper, De Warme Winkel investigates whether, and how, to speak with our fact-free fellow human beings. How can we still reach the other if arguments no longer matter and science is also just an opinion?

The title role is played by Britt Hartog, a self-made woman and an absolute boss, who previously shone at De Warme Winkel in Een oprechte ode aan de Ironie.
