Onder de oppervlakte

In 2005, the Nether­lands and Belgium signed an agree­ment about the deep­ening of the West­er­schelde river. In the following years, emotions ran high about the settle­ment to give reclaimed land back tot the river — partic­u­larly about the ques­tion whether or not the Hedwige­polder should be flooded. Ten years later, the Nether­lands still has not executed the arrange­ment. This docu­men­tary is a recon­struc­tion of the unpar­al­leled deci­sion-making process through the years and attempts to fathom the polit­ical game full of sentiments.
