Ruigoord: een kosmisch lek

The story

Ruigoord, a village near Amsterdam, was squatted by hippies in the 1970s. Fifty years later, it is the oldest cultural sanctuary in the Netherlands; a refuge for artists, dreamers and freethinkers, like an oasis of wonder wedged between the port and industry. When they want to celebrate their 50th anniversary, the Amsterdam energy transition hangs over the village like a black shadow; the nearby oil tanks are going to be used for storage of green hydrogen, which puts Ruigoord in the danger zone. Will the cosmic leak - to which the people of Ruigoord attribute the magic of the village - provide relief? Complicated issues that all come up in the run-up to the celebration of the anniversary.
