Ons Erfdeel vzw and Poëziecentrum vzw asked nine youngsters from the Low Countries to create poetic films based on their favourite Dutch-language poem. Justine Cappelle (b. 1995, Roeselare) made a film after the poem Ik hou van Icarus (I love Icarus) by Tjitske Jansen, from the anthology Het moest maar eens gaan sneeuwen, published by Podium in 2003. The video poetry project Moving Verses is made possible with the support of the Dutch Foundation for Literature.
