Dakota Blu-ray with Slipcover (Cult Epics) [Preorder]

Preorder scheduled for release September 16, 2025

A Dutch pilot (Blue Movie's Kees Brusse) with a real passion for flying risks everything to keep his DC3/Dakota plane in the air when getting involved with contraband. Attention to flight detail and the beautiful backdrop of the Caribbean and co-stars Monique van de Ven (Turkish Delight) and Willeke van Ammelrooy (Frank & Eva) make this seldom seen much loved Dutch classic worth watching. DAKOTA, the last Scorpio film directed by Wim Verstappen (Pastorale 1943), with cinematography by Jan de Bont and Theo van de Sande, was recently rediscovered as a Dutch masterwork of cinema and is now available for the first time on Blu-ray.
