Four-part documentary series
On the occasion of the 70th commemoration of the 1953 flood disaster, NTR has produced a four-part documentary series "The water is coming. Using archive material and penetrating eyewitness accounts, the four documentaries map out how the disaster was able to happen, how insufficient anticipation of the impending danger was made beforehand, and what we have learned from the disaster.
