The lives of his parents, who watched their son die in intensive care, are transformed forever.

NATURAL HISTORY / 94’ / FEATURE DOCUMENTARY
THE NEW WILDERNESS is a 94-minute experience celebrating the enormous resilience and creative drive of nature in the raw. 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 reclaimed land has been transformed into one of Europe’s most dynamic and productive wetlands. In an age of seemingly unrelenting ecological breakdown this new wilderness is a rare and inspiring beacon of hope.
“A dozen cinematographers are credited for the stunning imagery....
countless contre-jour shots that show a side of the Netherlands rarely seen on-screen.” – The Hollywood reporter

NATURAL HISTORY / 96’ / FEATURE DOCUMENTARY
An ode to the rivers and the diverse delta nature they support, in all of its mystery, breath and beauty.
Holland – The Living Delta celebrates the diverse natural heritage of the Dutch rivers and delta region while sketching the culture and historical context that has played such a vital part in shaping them. It is often said that while god created the world, the Dutch created Holland.
Using cutting edge cinematic techniques ranging from eagle’s eye aerial views to unprecedented underwater scenes revealing rarely seen secret worlds – Holland – the Living Delta presents a portrait of this unique wetland area of Europe as never seen before; capturing it in an important moment of change, when many of the natural processes, all but strangled by enormous dikes, pumps and canals, are recovering. A time when new life is flooding back into the delta.
