Two sixteen-year-old girls, Sanne and Clarissa, are invited to a party by one of their brothers. The girls have done their best to dress appropriately, but when they arrive at the party it turns out that they are completely underdressed and, moreover, by far the youngest. Afterwards they visit a snack bar, where suddenly a nice boy Sanne had met that morning enters the supermarket. 'Snacken' is a subtle story, in which it is not so much about the story, but about the exchanges of glances between two 16-year-old girlfriends, in which vulnerability and bravura compete for priority.

During the International Film Festival Rotterdam in 2002, Leo Hannewijk (festival director Film by the Sea) approached filmmaker and producer Digna Sinke with the idea of asking several film makers to make short films based on poems about the province of Zeeland. It would offer an opportunity to investigate the limits of the medium film and, just like poetry, not to focus on the story but to tackle universal and grander themes through mood and form. In the end, eight short films were realized, by eight different filmmakers. The films are connected by intermezzi, aerial shots of the Zeeland coasts. Poems of the Sea is a stirring and surprising portrayal of Zeeland. Filled with desires and passion.
