<DIV CLASS="_1mf _1mj"><SPAN>A NICE GUY</SPAN></DIV>
</DIV>
<DIV>
<DIV CLASS="_1mf _1mj"><SPAN>Tom is a guy most of us know. He’s a nice guy. A young, carefree student that parties with his friends and is in a steady relationship with Eloisa. One night, Tom crosses Eloisa’s boundaries. On the surface, not much seems to change in Tom's life but on the inside an anxious struggle takes place. Will Tom be able to face his actions when confronted to Eloisa’s suffering? Or is his “good guy” image unshakeable?</SPAN></DIV>

<DIV>
<DIV CLASS="_1mf _1mj"><SPAN>As much 40% of the Dutch women report sexual assault. In more than 80% of these cases, the perpetrator is someone known to the victim. Gemma Barendse and Joël van Dooren, co-directors of “A Nice Guy”, try to demystify the cliché of the evil, nameless danger lurking in the dark alley by shedding light on perpetrators who are known to the victims, and on the harmful effects of male identity and toxic masculinity, the set of standards our society holds for men that damage both their lives and the lives of others.</SPAN></DIV>
