Animated film about Port number 9830 on the Maasvlakte, Rotterdam. The natural and technological landscapes of the port area come together in an abrasive way. Captured with a homemade camera with a handblown-glass camera eye, its lens filled with seawater. It produces miraculous time-space deformations.

P-9830

In a Dutch nature reserve, two canals run parallel to each other. The camera moves across the surface of the water and accelerates to fly from one canal to the other. The images change from black-and-white to infrared and we see the reserve from an unusual color spectrum, and at a different velocity.
