STEFFEN HAARS

Writer, Director Steffen Haars had his first success with the New Kids Turbo, which was set in the small town of Maaskantje where Steffen and his younger brother actor Tim Haars grew up. 1.6 Million people flocked to the Dutch theaters to see New Kids Turbo and later its sequel New Kids Nitro, written and directed by Steffen Haars and Flip van der Kuil.
