Nobel (2016)

Nordic Homeland quality

[8/10 · 7 December 2016]

What a quality: A superb Nordic series. Great to view from many angles the complex world we live in. A view from the side of the government, from the side of the army and from within a family where these worlds meet...

The story gives me a feeling that is the reality we have to deal with. I also have this feeling of reality when I watch the series Homeland. I have to admit that most American series are not my cup of tea. Can't get rid of the feeling that this series gave inspiration to Nobel. Normally the Nordic series do it the other way :) Personally I hope we also get some more seasons... Anyone some meets about a season 2?

An Inconvenient Truth (2006)

it changes the way you think... will it change the way we act?

[9/10 · 28 November 2006]

Three weeks have passed since I watched this documentary. No day passed that I didn't think back. Every colleague at my work that watched this documentary has the same symptoms. I am glad that I work for the Dutch government, I am an environmental adviser. I am glad, because I am in the position to do something more than think different. Together with colleagues and our politicians we have rented some movie theater's and contacted schools to show this documentary to students. We own it to our children to inform them.

The global warmth is the biggest challenge since the industrial revolution. I hope that many will think different, and I hope the more that we will unite and act different.
