"Kon-Tiki" was the name of a wooden raft used by six Scandinavian scientists, led by Thor Heyerdahl, to make a 101-day journey from South America to the Polynesian Islands. The purpose of the expedition was to prove Heyerdal's theory that the Polynesian Islands were populated from the east- specifically Peru- rather than from the west (Asia) as had been the theory for hundreds of years. Heyerdahl made a study of the winds and tides in the Pacific, and by simulating conditions as closely as possible to those he theorized the Peruvians encountered, set out on the voyage.

Noch nie hatte es das auf der Kinoleinwand gegeben: Die unendliche Weite der Unterwasserwelt mit ihrer Vielzahl an Farben und Bewohnern. Ein vollkommen eigener Kosmos mit eigenen Regeln – eine Welt der Stille und des Schweigens. Die zwölf Taucher des französischen Meeresforschungsschiffs Calypso und ihr Kapitän Jacques Cousteau machen diese Welt für den Zuschauer sichtbar – sie ernten Schwämme am Meeresgrund, tauchen zu gesunkenen Schiffswracks, schwimmen mit Delfinen und Schildkröten, nähern sich Haien, erkunden die Fische des Roten Meeres und schließen Freundschaft mit Barsch Jojo. Mit an Bord ist auch der junge Filmemacher Louis Malle, der gemeinsam mit Cousteau Regie führt. Malle und Cousteau gelingt es, die einzigartige Schönheit der tropischen Meere zu dokumentieren und für den tauch-unerfahrenen Zuschauer erlebbar zu machen.

This short documentary, shot in the glass factories of Leerdam and Schiedam, demonstrates how glass blowers do their work. But thanks to the superbly edited ballet of working hands and the sequence of mechanical motions of the engines, is it especially a cinematic tour de force. That the industry can’t do without man’s involvement is shown in the scene where we hear the voice of Haanstra himself counting the bottles on the conveyor belt, until one bottle breaks….

In this short film Bert Haanstra gives his vision - from the water – of a tranquil Holland. During filming he held the camera upside down and afterwards put the images ‘up right’ again in the film. By doing this, we see the ‘usual’ waterfront, but transformed by the rippling of the water. In this way Mirror of Holland became a modern looking experimental film. However this did not devalue the Dutch sentiment regarding waterfronts that are so trusted to so many.
