De Hel van '63 (English: The Hell of ‘63) is a 2009 Dutch drama film directed by Steven de Jong [nl]. The film is based on the 1963 edition of the Elfstedentocht, a long-distance ice skating tour in the Netherlands. This 1963 edition became known as "The hell of '63" when only 69 of the nearly 10,000 participants were able to finish the race, due to the extremely low temperatures of -18 °C, powder snow and a harsh eastern wind.
