The Tars or De Jantjes is a 1934 Dutch comedy film drama directed by Jaap Speyer.
The film became a big commercial success and popularised the genre of Jordaanfilms, a Dutch film-genre popular in the 1930s.
Jordaanfilms followed working class protagonists in the impoverished Jordaan-area of Amsterdam who speak and sing in local dialect.
The film also led to a romanticized and idolised version of the Jordaan.
This imaged existed in Dutch popular culture for most of the 20th century.
