This summer, for the very first time, Cineville presents four full days of exclusive previews, in over 50 cinemas and 32 cities across the Netherlands. We chose films that fit Cineville like a glove: from adult animation to sexy slasher, and from political drama to personal documentary.

The Cineville Preview Days will take place from 2 – 5 July. The full line-up of films is listed below. Showtimes can be also be found on this page.

The programme includes from Cannes 2026 (Teenage Sex and Death at Camp Miasma, Jim Queen), a beautifully restored classic (Black Girl), no less than three documentaries (including IDFA ‘25 favourite The Desert of the Real) and films that won’t be released until the fall, such as Golden Bear winner Yellow Letters. Join the conversation with Olivia Wilde’s The Invite, or go see our very mysterious sneak preview (hint: it’s fresh from Cannes). During the Cineville Preview Days, you get to see these films (and many more) first.
