Elckerlyc is a 1975 Dutch drama film directed by Jos Stelling and starring George Bruens. It is also known as Elckerlijc and Elkerlyc. It tells the story of a criminal who falls in love with a girl in medieval times. The film is loosely based on the 15th-century morality play with the same title. Like in Stellings's previous film, Mariken van Nieumeghen, most of the actors are non-professionals.[1] The film was released in Dutch cinemas on 18 December 1975.[2]
