and the value of freedom.
Prior to Bridge to Liberation, we commemorate the Battle of Arnhem (17-25 September 1944) and the subsequent forced evacuation of the residents of Arnhem in the presence of the veterans at the official commemoration on Airborneplein. Attendees then give a salute of honor to the veterans who still return to Arnhem every year with their families, keep the stories alive and pass them on to future generations.

We have been living in freedom in the Netherlands for 75 years. What unites us in 2020 is that we live in a free country where we have the freedom to say what we think, to believe what we want. To be who we want, without hunger or fear.
What is freedom? What is unfreedom? Bridge to Liberation -Screen Experience- in 2020 is about regaining freedom from lack of freedom and how fighting for someone's freedom can lead to lack of freedom.
We need each other to safeguard our freedom.
We are responsible for each other's freedom.
