Liselot Verbrugge has a degree in film production from the Dutch Film Academy. She has more than 15 years experience in the audiovisual sector, first working for a few years in production before moving to film festivals. Amongst other postings, she was a festival and market producer at the IDFA Forum and Cinekid for professionals, two of Amsterdam’s most preeminent cultural events.
In 2013 she began working in documentary sales, working for several companies. After five years with Deckert Distribution, Liselot launched Film Harbour in 2024, an Amsterdam based world sales for creative docs. Parallel to this she offers bespoke consulting and tutoring services for a variety of organizations.

As a world sales company, Film Harbour distributes creative documentaries from around the globe for which we see a potential on the international market. The films in our catalog are very diverse in style and content, but they all have one thing in common: we are convinced of their high artistic quality and their strong relevance, and we want to introduce these outstanding documentaries to a wide international audience. Our catalog includes modern classics such as the double Academy Award nominee HONEYLAND by Ljubomir Stefanov & Tamara Kotevska, and HEIMAT IS A SPACE IN TIME by Thomas Heise, but also recent hits like Sundance award AGAINST THE TIDE and the theatrical hit CLOSE TO VERMEER.
