For our latest project we will travel for a period of four months to Argentina, Chile and Brazil, where we will carry out research for our next documentary. At the end of March 2009 we will be back in Holland.
For this documentary we will cooperate together again with producer Gijs van de Westelaken (Column Film) who was also involved in our film Cuba RebelioN.
In South America we’re going to the ALMA observatory in the Atacama desert in Chile (the driest place on earth), where we will conduct research and preliminary filming for a feature-length documentary.

ColdSun filming for a BBC World-documentary
Director Joshka Wessels commissioned us to film for the BBC World-documentary Go With the Flow. The Documentary will be broadcast on BBC World 13 March 2009 on the BBC Earth Reports.
In November 2008, the country carried out a three-day major exercise to prepare for the worst credible flood. In the worst case the dikes will break and one-third of the country will be flooded. In 2009 the Dutch government will implement a law to unlock major funding of more than 165 billion Euros to reinforce the dikes and strengthen the coastline.
The documentary film for BBC World entitled Go With the Flow, is about a recent disaster management exercise conducted by the Dutch authorities. It offers a rare, behind-the-scenes insight into the workings of state authorities and emergency services personnel.
The fictional disaster itself – a massive, once in a century flood that threatens to submerge large parts of the Netherlands beneath a wall of flood waters – is both dramatic and at the same time terrifyingly possible.
Alessio and Sander were offered unprecedented access to the disaster exercise and its participants, conducting interviews with Guusje ter Horst, the Dutch minister of Internal Affairs, as well as emergency services personnel, military strategists and a number of real-life flood victims.
