Meet the Fokkens is a documentary about two of Amsterdam's oldest prostitutes: 70-year-old identical twins Louise and Martine Fokken. The twins looks at their lives and share secrets of selling sex in the city's famous red light district.
Martine still sells sex. She says the Dutch state pension alone is not enough to live on. Louise quit because of arthritis.
Martine says she would like to retire but cannot afford to. The documentary shows her at work - perched on a stool in stockings, suspenders and patent leather stilettos.
Martine Fokken has found a niche in the fetish market for older men Young men who pass by, some of them on stag parties from abroad, mock her for being old. She laughs it off (like she does with everything) and says she does not care.
[...] She appears to specialise in bondage for older men. Targeting them with things they like to dress up in. Tempting them into her brothel with an array of dangerous looking whips and high-heeled shoes. It seems she has found a niche in the fetish market.
