Panic Room is a bi-annual event curated by The Panics. It began in 2009 with the aim of bringing the Amsterdam creative crowd together. They invite some of the best directors, photographers, artists, musicians and random creative folk they admire from around the globe to come and share what’s making them tick at the moment. This edition is hosted right at In Motion Rotterdam and one of the guests is Mikey Please whimsical creator of heart-warming projects, such as the stop-motion musical Robin, Robin.
