This film is part of Het Wad Op, a series of short documentaries exploring the relationship between humans and the Wadden Sea region.

The series delves into how human activity often clashes with the natural dynamics of this unique landscape. What can the land teach us? Will we keep going against the flow, or will we start moving along with the natural rhythm of the Wadden?
The episode Bezinken (Drowning) explores how gas drilling quite literally pulls the ground out from under millions of migratory birds. We follow a scientist investigating its impact on the ecosystem, and an activist determined to push for change.
