Editor Barbara Hin (1964 – 2020)
Robin’s girlfriend whom he lived with for more than 15 years. Every cut Barbara made tells its own story and moves and twists the film she worked at in its own unexpected direction. Sushifilm was Barbaras company.


Russian Enigma, Michaïl Gorbachov
In 1998 Van Erven Dorens went to Moscou with the journalist and Eastern Europe specialist Tijn Sadée to interview Michaïl Gorbachov. The result was the short documentary  Russian Enigma. It was the first time that this former world leader and ex-president of the Soviet Union spoke so openly about his leadership and his heritage. The film was selected for the Rotterdam Film Festival.
