The December 21, 1976 edition of the Dutch newspaper De Stem reported how filming had started the day before:
"In een indisch restaurant in Scheveningen is men gisteren begonnen met opnamen van een nieuwe Nederlandse speelfilm, die als titel draagt "Het debuut". Hier een scène met de hoofdrolspelers Marina de Graaf en Gerard Cox. Marina speelt de rol van Carolien en Cox speelt in de film de man die op haar verliefd wordt"

I should forward my potential posts to you for fact checking. These days getting past the brief summary articles that get repeated over and over to find the more in-depth informative pieces is the hardest part. You're good at it!
That first article I've read before. Public cast announcements don't necessarily happen in a timely way so that detail doesn't tell us much. I don't recall seeing exact filming dates on IMDb when I looked prior to putting this up three years ago. And that's one place I always check. My guess is that they've been added since then, the Wayback Machine hasn't stored a backup copy of that page though - if they were there before maybe I should have my eyes examined.
Anyway, thanks for clearing this up.
