Daudi Matsiko - King of Misery

Director: Hanna van Niekerk
When a man sinks into the darkest depths of depression, his devoted partner makes the ultimate sacrifice by transferring her own life force to him through magical energy helmets, but at what cost? British-Ugandan singer-songwriter Daudi Matsiko explores the depths of human connection, the weight of mental illness, and the sacrifices we make for those we love.
This 2025 edition celebrates the 10th anniversary of the Fullscreen x XITE program!
Fullscreen x XITE has been a festival highlight for years. Over the past eight editions, clips from a wide variety of artists have been featured: from S10 to Kempi, from André Hazes to Akwasi, from Froukje to De Jeugd van Tegenwoordig. But also international clips by Madonna, Janelle Monáe, and James Blake. After all, Dutch directors go far and wide, creating music videos that reach well beyond our borders. So, once again this year, you can look forward to a richly diverse program! The selection will be announced in August.
In between the clips, the program’s creator, Job de Wit, will talk with directors and artists. This way, you’ll hear the stories behind the videos, gain insight into the making of music videos, and learn more about the creative collaboration between directors and artists.
