Alaska - The Nutrient Cycle: A Visual Story

Paul Klaver is a wildlife filmmaker and photographer from Holland. For two years he has been working in Dutch nature reserve the Oostvaardersplassen on the feature film ‘The New Wilderness’. Working as a cameraman, he is mainly responsible for all the timelapse-sequences presented in the film. Many processes in nature are too slow to observe with the naked eye. But when speeded up, a whole new world unfolds itself. A flower opening in the early morning light, a tree freezing during a cold winter night with stars passing by or the appearing of a rainbow during a storm, all make up for a magical experience. Upon release, the film received critical acclaim and was a hit at the box office.
