Kris De Meester’s no/low-budget feature Four Roses is to receive a premiere screening in The Netherlands on 14 April at Amsterdam’s De Melkweg theatre. The selection of Four Roses recently for the Memphis International Film Festival in the US also marked the film’s 15th festival selection. In addition to festival invitations, it also grabbed several awards at indie film fests such as the Atlanta Underground Film Fest, the Radar Hamburg Independent Film Festival and the Cannes Independent Film Festival. 
In Four Roses, 12 very different people in six hotel rooms share hilarious, intimate and unforgettable moments. Jack has invited Ivana, a hooker, to his room. He doesn’t want sex, only to talk. Ivana doesn’t trust him. Stand-up comedian Ira Levi agreed to an interview by Serge Beaufort, a Belgian reporter. Serge's English is terrible, which irritates Ira. At one point, Ira’s convinced Serge doesn’t understand a word he's saying. Two Brazilian lovebirds, Felipe and Lubke, are living day by day, from one dive to another. Felipe wants to sleep. Lubke wants to play.
Big John, Tall John, and Naked John were supposed to meet in a hotel room to plan a crime, but Naked John is late. Josh and Dré are in love. Back from a romantic dinner they get cosy in their hotel room. Dré thinks Josh is about to propose since, after two years as lovers, she feels it’s the obvious next step. Mabel and Frank just had a fight. Married for over 50 years, it’s their second visit to the hotel. The first was on their honeymoon night.
The European Independent Film Festival called the film ‘a provocative black and white drama exploring themes of isolation, love and being'. Shot in black and white, without subsidies and in just four days, Four Roses is produced and directed by Kris De Meester for Zoffa.
