Together with Ingrid van de Linde, visual
artist and filmmaker, I started the
filmproject Film du Jardin, outdoor cinema
in natural surroundings to experience the
magic of the night.
In three poetic art films we highlight the
relationship between man and
nature from different angles.
DOMINIO
(42 min)
Dreams and reality are intertwined. The
protagonist is Eelco Schaap, former
spokesmen for Organic Dynamic Agriculture in
the Netherlands, farmer and anthroposoph. We
filmed on the estate Dominio at Serra da
Estrela in Portugal, where he pursues his
ideals. We were inspired by Eelco's dream in
which the mutual connection between all
living beings, the earth and kosmos is
central.
TROPHY
(23 min)
Inspired by the 17th-century clair obscure
painting technique we show the beauty and
uniqueness of horned animals, belonging to
the unique collection of taxidermy
animals in a private museum in Holland.
Once in a while with life music.
MARCH OF THE BEES (6.55 min)
"When the bees become extinct mankind must
start to worry," Einstein wrote.
We associate the bees as light carriers with
the fire blackened fields in Portugal. Light
and dark, life and death, fiction and
non-fiction.
2017 ‘Voice of the Raven’ (3.15 min)

STORYTELLING
Now and then at the right time in the right
place I am telling, singing, pondering and
philosophizing about love: EURYDICE, my
ultimate lovestory.
