[Arnhem] English Subs: Sound of Falling
#This meetup is around a third-party organizer (Focus Filmtheater): you can either purchase your ticket online or right before the session#
Lately, tickets have been selling out fast, we recommend getting them in advance.
**Title**: Sound of Falling
**Language**: German
**Subtitles**: English
**Length**: 155 min
**Director**: Mascha Schilinski
**More info**: https://www.focusarnhem.nl/agenda/english-subs-sound-of-falling/
**Ticket link**: https://www.focusarnhem.nl/tickets/141178/
**Synopsis**:
*Sound of Falling* is a haunting drama by German filmmaker Mascha Schilinski (*Dark Blue Girl*) about four generations of girls connected and trapped by a shared past. Through small keyholes, crooked corridors, and murky water, we experience their emotional worlds full of inner turmoil, subjective memories, and hidden traumas.
A remote farm in the German Altmark. Four girls from different timesโAlma (1910s), Erika (1940s), Angelika (1980s), and Lenka (2020s)โspend their childhoods within the same scarred walls. As they wander through their own present, echoes of the past resound in the corridors: unspoken fears, repressed traumas, hidden secrets. Despite the years that separate them, their lives seem mysteriously intertwined. When a tragic event repeats itself on the farm, the boundaries between past and present begin to blur.
**How it works**:
I will be at Focus around 18:30, where we can meet before the movie starts. You can message me to find us. Screening starts at 19:00. After the movie, we can have a drink together.
Hope to see you soon!

March Bowling!
A fun evening full of oooohh's and aaahhhโs and this is why: https://youtu.be/9Usnkt4mEvM
Itโs all about having fun, so donโt worry if this is your first or second time playing. We will help you and we always cheer every player to victory so everyone has a great experience.
Pls be aware - paid event - read all information!
I reserved 4 lanes for 1,5 hrs, so we play from 20.00 - 21.30
Since I have to pay in advance I ask anyone that joins to pay their part as well in advance.
If you join the list for this event, please transfer 15 euros immediately or make someone on the waiting list happy by giving your spot to him or her.
I will sent a tikkie or publish it in the comments. Your spot is only confirmed after payment. No pay. No play.
Please note that there is no refund for cancellation, since I have reserved bowlinglanes and have to pay full price wheter we are with 10 people or 3 people.
In case you can't make it, I suggest you find someone to take your spot and he or she pays you the money back. If someone on the waiting list takes your spot then a refund is possible. If someone takes your place, pls let me know in advance.
Pls be on time. We start bowling at 8 pm sharp. So be there at least 15 minutes early since u need to change shoes and maybe want to get a drink at the bar.
After the bowling we usually go to a cafรฉ in the city for drinks but if u feel like going home this is ofcourse also okay.
Real Estate #3: Kasteel Broekhuizen โ A Country Estate of Ruins & Hidden Stories
**Sunday, March 15th โ 13:00**
**Meeting point:** Bus stop *Donderberg*, Leersum
For the third edition of **Real Estate**, our series dedicated to exploring some of the most fascinating villas, estates and historic residences in the Netherlands, we head to the green heart of the Utrechtse Heuvelrug to discover **Kasteel Broekhuizen**.
Hidden among forests and rolling landscapes near Leersum, Broekhuizen is a country estate with **medieval roots and a turbulent history**. Over the centuries, it has known periods of prosperity, destruction and reconstruction โ and today it stands as a quiet witness to how history, landscape and architecture continuously reshape each other.
During our walk, weโll explore the **estate and its surrounding park**, uncovering stories about:
* the rise and fall of the estate
* its phases of destruction and rebuilding
* hidden corners and forgotten traces in the landscape
* and the role of the **Van Nellesteyn family** in shaping its history
This is not just a visit to a beautiful country house, but a journey through **layers of time**, where nature and history are deeply intertwined.
### Practical information
* **Walk length:** approx. 3.4 km
* The route goes through parkland and forest paths, so comfortable shoes are recommended.
### After the walk
Weโll finish at **Bistro LOF**, the cafรฉ/restaurant located within the castle estate itself, where we can enjoy a drink together โ and for those who wish, also stay for something to eat โ in a setting that perfectly complements the atmosphere of the place.
A hidden estate.
A story of loss and renewal.
A walk through history in the landscape.
AI, Agents & Testen
๐๐ ๐ถ๐ ๐ด๐ฒ๐ฒ๐ป ๐๐ต๐ผ๐ฟ๐๐ฐ๐๐ ๐ป๐ฎ๐ฎ๐ฟ ๐ธ๐๐ฎ๐น๐ถ๐๐ฒ๐ถ๐ โ ๐ท๐ถ๐ท ๐ฏ๐ฒ๐ป๐ ๐ฑ๐ฎ๐ ๐๐ฒ๐น.
AI-tools, agentic oplossingen en LLMโs lijken het vakgebied Software Testen opnieuw te definiรซren. Sommigen beweren dat AI straks al het denkwerk overneemt. Dat we alleen nog prompts hoeven te schrijven en de rest vanzelf gebeurt...
โ Spoiler: nee dus.
Nieuwe technologie vervangt ons testers niet; het daagt ons uit om scherper te denken, slimmer te werken en onze rol opnieuw vorm te geven. AI is geen magie. Het is een krachtig hulpmiddel, mits jij de regie houdt.
We duiken in de beperkingen van AI, zoals het gebrek aan context, creativiteit en betrouwbaarheid รฉn hoe jij als tester die gaten opvult. We gaan hands-on aan de slag met onder andere de Playwright Agents en kijken kritisch naar de waarde van deze toepassingen. Want AI kan veel, maar geen verantwoordelijkheid nemen. Geen risicoโs inschatten. Geen ethische afweging maken.
Daarover gaat deze Plug-In workshop, gebaseerd op ons manifest: Testen & AI.
Wat kun je verwachten?
โก๏ธ Een kritische blik op AI in het testvak en specifiek testautomatisering
โก๏ธ Praktische tools en technieken die nu al werken
โก๏ธ Een hands-on oefening met LLMโs
โก๏ธ En vooral: veel ruimte voor discussie, reflectie en inspiratie
๐ De toekomst van testen vraagt niet minder denkwerk, maar juist mรฉรฉr. En precies dรกรกrom ben jij onmisbaar.
Inclusief eten, netwerk en sparringspartners. De sessie is gratis (parkeren ook).
***LET OP: Dit is een hands-on sessie, dus neem je laptop mee en zorg ervoor dat je applicaties erop mag installeren!***
Plug-In!
AI Next Level - Prompting like a Pro & Using AI Responsibly
**Meer snelheid, betere output รฉn verantwoord gebruik van AI in je dagelijkse werk.**
Je hebt de **AI Essentials** onder de knie.
Je experimenteert met prompts, ziet de potentie en gebruikt AI inmiddels regelmatig.
Maar je voelt ook: dit kan scherper, sneller en bewuster.
In deze **AI Next Level-workshop** zetten we de volgende stap.
Geen herhaling van de basis, maar verdieping.
Meer grip op prompting รฉn meer inzicht in wat verantwoord AI-gebruik in de praktijk รฉcht betekent.
**Wat houdt deze workshop in?**
Deze interactieve dag bestaat uit twee nauw verbonden onderdelen:
**1\. Prompting like a Pro**
Je gebruikt al een basisstructuur voor prompts โ nu is het tijd om door te schakelen.
In dit deel leer je:
* Geavanceerdere promptstructuren die sneller tot betere output leiden
* Hoe je minder hoeft te โstoeienโ en gerichter kunt werken
* Hoe je AI effectief inzet als denkpartner bij complexere vraagstukken
* Hoe je context, rol en doel zรณ meegeeft dat je output direct bruikbaar wordt
Het resultaat: **meer snelheid, meer kwaliteit en meer vertrouwen in wat je terugkrijgt.**
**2\. Using AI Responsibly**
Minstens zo belangrijk โ en vaak onderschat.
AI is krachtig, maar niet neutraal en niet zonder risicoโs.
Hoe ga je daar professioneel mee om?
Je leert onder andere:
* Welke informatie je wel en juist niet in prompts moet verwerken
* Hoe om te gaan met privacy, vertrouwelijkheid en bedrijfsinformatie
* Hoe AI-modellen zijn getraind en wat dat betekent voor de antwoorden
* Hoe je bias, aannames en โmooie maar onjuisteโ output herkent
Dit deel helpt je om **bewuster, veiliger en professioneler** met AI te werken โ voor jezelf รฉn je organisatie.
**Hoe werken we?**
Net als bij de Essentials-workshop geloven we niet in zenden, maar in **samen ontdekken**.
* Praktisch en interactief: werken met je eigen cases
* Creatief en laagdrempelig: leren door te doen
* Leren van elkaar: verschillende rollen, contexten en perspectieven
* Geen technische training, geen tool-overzicht
* Wel: denken, beoordelen, toepassen en verbeteren
De ervaring leert **dat de groep een groot deel van de waarde bepaalt** โ en dat hoor je terug in de feedback.
**Wat neem je mee na afloop?**
Na deze workshop:
* Werk je sneller en gerichter met AI
* Weet je welke prompts รฉcht werken voor jouw werk
* Kun je AI-output beter beoordelen en bevragen
* Ga je bewuster om met data, privacy en betrouwbaarheid
* Weet je concreet wat je maandag anders doet
En:
**Drie weken later organiseren we een vrijblijvende terugkom-call,** waarin deelnemers ervaringen delen en leren van elkaars praktijk.
**Voor wie is deze workshop bedoeld?**
Deze workshop is bedoeld voor:
* Professionals en managers zonder technische achtergrond
* Deelnemers van de AI Essentials-workshop (of vergelijkbare basiskennis)
* Mensen die AI al gebruiken, maar daar meer rendement en zekerheid uit willen halen
* Iedereen die AI professioneel, bewust en verantwoord wil inzetten
**Pilot & praktische informatie**
Deze workshop is opgezet als **Next Level-pilot**.
Dat betekent: kleinschalig, persoonlijk en met ruimte voor feedback om de training verder te verfijnen.

๐ธ Online Womenโs Circle | Meditation & Journaling โ Relax the Belly
๐ธ **Free online gathering**
**Next circle: March 15**
After this, we will continue meeting on the **first Sunday of each month**.
A space to begin the month by returning to yourself.
This womenโs circle is an invitation to give yourself one hour to pause, slow down, and reconnect with your body, your inner voice, and other women. A simple and caring commitment: beginning the month with meditation and journaling in community.
You can think of it as a small personal ritual, creating the habit of listening to yourself, writing, and setting intentions for the month ahead.
We meet online on Sunday afternoons to gently transition into a new week and a new month, creating a moment of presence, reflection, and intention.
During this 1-hour session we will explore:
โจ a guided meditation to arrive in the body
โจ a journaling practice to connect with what is alive in you
โจ a space for sharing, where you are welcome to speak or simply listen
No previous experience is needed. You are welcome just as you are.
Please have a notebook and a pen nearby, and join from a quiet space where you wonโt be interrupted during the session.
You are welcome to join once, or come back each month. The choice is yours.
The first circles are offered for free in order to create community and open this space to more women.
Participants who register for the event will receive the **Google Meet link** before the circle begins.
It will be lovely to welcome you into this space ๐ฟ
