Great Lengths is a short film (7') by director Ramon Gieling, set to music by DJ Martyn Deijkers. Main characters are Halina Reijn and Martyn.
Amand dreams about the day of his farewell at the football stadium. After the ball is taken from him, and Martyn dies, his own beats are the soundtrack to his own funeral. The film is a tribute to Martyn's father, former PSV top scorer Gerrie Deijkers, who died of a heart attack in 2003.
