Groenkijkers

In Groenkijkers (‘greenwatchers’), Rovers delivers a visual tribute to nature conservationists like her father, who each in their own way try to preserve and improve their piece of nature. We are part of their small discoveries and successes. But we also experience how they struggle with the sometimes desperate feeling of whether it all still matters.

Groenkijkers is a poetic and urgent mosaic film about love for nature, connection to a place, sorrow for what disappears, and hope for what can change.

For Groenkijkers it was important to maintain an optimistich atmosphere that looked naturalistic but also allowed each scene to have it’s own atmosphere.
