Wij jagen   // director

We hunt is a short documentary. This visual portrait is centered on the topic of hunting and depicts the authentic story of hunters. This independent project provides a counter-narrative to the often one-sided, media-created image of hunting.

Bjorn is a Dutch hunter with a passion for nature. Through voice-overs, he describes the unwritten rules, experiences, friendships and rivalries that exist within the world of hunting. It's the recollection of the smallest moments that trigger hunters to go hunt again. These small moments are emphasized through the film's use of slow motion. ​
