Our Nature, The Movie

At the heart of one of the most densely populated areas of Europe, in a country where every square meter of land has been meticulously shaped by man, lie the Oostvaardersplassen – a unique experiment in letting nature run its course. In just 40 years, 6,000 hectares of newly formed polder has been transformed into one of Europe’s most dynamic and productive wetlands – home to some of Europe’s rarest birds such as the magnificent white tailed eagle, which hadn’t been seen in the Netherlands since the Middle Ages.

In the feature film North Sea Untamed, the viewer is taken beneath the waves through the eyes of Peter van Rodijnen. He is an experienced diver and underwater cameraman. From the wild blue waters around the Scottish islands to the shallow delta of the Low Countries and up along the dramatic coastline of the Norwegian fjords. North Sea Untamed is a cinematic adventure and a voyage of discovery that will show the North Sea in all its glory.

The passage of time is spellbinding in this cinematic tour de force about the Wadden Sea. A film that inhales and exhales along with the tides as it explores the fragile relationship between man and nature.

A typical Dutch ditch: Rarely worthy of a second glance. But those who look closer discover a rich ecosystem, teeming with life and intricate connections. Beneath the surface of a Dutch waterway lies a hidden world. In this short nature film, we follow the lives of fish, insects, and birds across the changing seasons, from winter’s stillness to summer’s abundance. SLOOT is a tribute to biodiversity in a man-made landscape.
