She paints an erotically charged portrait of a woman whose casual sexual encounters mask a loneliness and a craving for intimacy. Hemel (Hannah Hoekstra) is a young woman who drifts through a series of anonymous one-night stands and seems only close to her father. When he finds himself a girlfriend, Hemel's jealousy puts her on the emotional edge. An emotionally and physically raw study of sexuality that is nothing less than mesmerizing. "Beautifully lensed look at the moment just before a daughter has to let go of her father should travel extensively and turn Polak into a name to watch." --Variety "Lust, love, and need prove a tangled knot inside the heart of one young woman in Hemel, Sacha Polak's alluring character study of a beautiful Dutch twentysomething driven to fill an emotional void with casual one-night stands...Hoekstra's stunning, star-making performance, which, in one striking close-up after another, sharply captures the fear and pain of having to let go and grow up." --Slant Magazine "Hemel stars Hannah Hoekstra as the title character, a young woman somewhere in her mid-twenties. What we come to the impression that Hemel is that she is searching for something; be it love or be it lust there s emptiness inside her, a part of her devoid of the emotional fulfillment she wants. To fill this, she tries sleeping around and having a few one night stands. This is all very casual to her, she thinks nothing of sleeping with someone she just met and has no problem chit chatting with him afterwards or even letting him shave off all of her pubic hair. As one encounter leads into the next, we have to start to wonder how and why she's so nonchalant about all of this. She very obviously enjoys sex and the pleasure that it brings her but seems resistant to actually making any sort of connection to her partners beyond the physical...this film is quite well made, occasionally surprising, and very worthwhile." --Rock! Shock! Pop! Hannah Hoekstra (1987) graduated in 2010 from the Amsterdam School for Drama and Contemporary Music Theatre. She did her pre-grad, work experience at NT Ghent and in 2010 acted in the performance LATE EVENING IDEALS by Sanne Vogel. Hannah appeared as well in the performance Sneeuwmeisjes (Snowgirls). HEMEL is her first role in a feature film! Review: Excellent as I expected - This movie has everything as described, and it is worth the money. The story is good, the photography is great, the locations, it has a great package of art, plus the nudity and the explicit parts are there and uncut, I suggest to have a copy, and I am sure you will not be disappointed, and you can watch it with your girl friend, or wife. Review: Gratification, without the commitment - Sexual gratification, without the commitment, appears to be the lead character's mission. As the plot unfolds, you realize that there is more to Hemel than something as simple as that. Let's talk about the censored version first. The censored version is what you get if you bought the streaming media from desertcart. However, if you buy the DVD, as I did, you will not have to worry about censored content. This review is about the DVD, the uncensored movie. The movie follows the life of a young lady who pursues sexual gratification for its own sake. She is not interested in forming relationships with her bed partners. There is nothing inherently wrong with this, as quite a lot of men do the same thing and are viewed differently under traditional values. What is fascinating about her is the relationship that she has with her father. The movie is Dutch, with English subtitles. However, you do get enough understanding of the story to know that she is in love with her father. Not necessarily in a sexual way, but definitely is possessive. The reason for the casual sexual encounters is simply to fulfill her needs. But clearly her heart is not in it, only her genitalia. In other words, the encounters are simply for sex. At some point in the story, it becomes clear that the father will be committing to a relationship with his girlfriend. At that point, Hemel is emotionally upset. Even to the point of contemplating jumping off the roof of a building. The star of the movie is the beautiful Dutch actress, Hannah Hoekstra. I reviewed another one of her movies, "App", earlier this year. While I enjoyed "App" more than I did this one, "Hemel" is still a fascinating movie to watch. Recommended. ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | Customer Reviews | 3.8 out of 5 stars 108 Reviews | ## Images ![Hemel - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/81ojrJIuNxL.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Excellent as I expected *by M***O on May 5, 2013* This movie has everything as described, and it is worth the money.

There are some erotic movies or romantic movies with erotica in it or porn movies that has some story line; all of these movies you may want to watch with your partner. Hemel is not one of those movies. It has full frontal nudity ( male and female) but not sex act. Without nudity, what you may call sex scene would get PG-13. next thing to mention is the subject of the movie, the story line and conversations between character. it is nude, blunt, vulgar. it could get R rating based on language. And father-daughter relationship portrait as border line, platonic level incest. Mostly from daughter's perspective. Then and an unexplain scene in the movie. While she is sleeping, calls her dad- by the way she never called him Dad, father or any other version of it but by his name- when he comes in her room. he says" you need to pee ( out of no where, really) and picks her up, carries her to bathroom. Pulls down her panties( nothing showed but profile view), she sits and pees. Scene ends. Why was there? What purpose it served? Have no idea. Entire movie is like that. I purchased the DVD and it was not censored at all. but like I said, save your 20 box and browse internet if you wanted to see nude female for free! let me tell you here. if you are somewhat into close family relations! go rent or buy movie called "spank the Monkey" You will be entertained.
