A quarter of a century on the same subject is unheard of. But what a subject. The most gigantic port in Europe. The most spectacular among the means of transport between the industries and trade of northern Europe and the rest of the world.
Freek van Arkel has clambered on port cranes and every type of ship multiplying his points of view; time has given him insight, expertise and the trust of his subjects, and therefore he has been granted exceptional access. Camera angles convey the dynamics of endless motion and show the prodigious logistics behind this gigantic water ballet.
