MEER – de strijd om de laatste akkers van Amsterdam
Short url:
Bart Melief | 2023 | NL | 74’ | Dutch, no subtitles
The Lutkemeerpolder in Amsterdam-West contains the city's last agricultural land. For centuries, farmers and their fields were part of Amsterdam, but now only one piece remains. And it is precisely there that the municipality has planned huge distribution centers. The plans have been the subject of fierce debate for years.
In the film, GroenLinks alderman Marieke van Doorninck defends the arrival of the business park; she is determined to have the distribution centers built. Farmer Trijntje tries with all her might to prevent her organic care farm from disappearing for sheds and trucks. In the meantime, involved Amsterdammers are taking increasingly tougher actions. How did it get this far? Why is the business park actually being built here? Or are there alternatives?
Benefit screening for Voedselpark Amsterdam.
