'Behind The Garden Gate' is a documentary film about homegrown biodiversity and the challenges that come with it.

​

In the 1970s Guus Lieberwerth and friends cleared a patch

of agricultural wasteland in order to take care of rare and

endangered plants and animals.

​

Now, 50 years later nature is thriving within a hidden paradise just five minutes away from a city centre, but even closer to systemic pressures and land developers.

Blackbird - Rebirth is a poetic and visual performance about loss, being left behind and starting over. 

​

The performance is created following the murder

of actress Linda Olthof and her six-year-old son

Jimmy in 2018 in New York.

​

Not only the mourners, but also the dead try

to find a way to let go. In a strange twilight zone,

anger and sadness collide.
