BLOWN OUT?!
DOCUMENTARY
For the documentary Blown Out I was asked to be director and cinematographer for one of the four story lines. During New Year’s Eve, I followed the Amsterdam fire brigade in their struggle to deal with small fires and explosions, caused by illegal fireworks.
New Year’s Eve in the Netherlands is a unique tradition with people setting off their own fireworks. This phenomenon has been a matter of intense discussion for several years now. Due to the Corona pandemic there has been a total ban on consumer fireworks. This will be the ultimate test: can we live without it?
The documentary was broadcasted by NTR on 4 January 2021.
