Tirza is a 2010 Dutch drama film written and directed by Rudolf van den Berg, based on the Dutch bestseller of the same name by Arnon Grunberg. The film was selected as the Dutch entry for the Best Foreign Language Film at the 83rd Academy Awards[2] but it didn't make the final shortlist.[3]
In retrospect, Abbey Hoes thinks she "should not have done" some of the nude scenes she has done in the past. "I've been on mokkels.nl since I was fourteen because of my role in the film Tirza." The actress tells in conversation with a magazine that there are people who think that "it's part of the game" if you are an actress. "But I don't think being on a dirty porn site is part of the job. If I had wanted that, I would have become a porn actress."[4]
The film was released on DVD and Blu-ray by Warner Home Video on 23 March 2011.[5]
