Okke Ornstein

‘Gevangen in Panama’

[ Trapped in Panama ]

In november 2016 werd de Nederlandse journalist Okke Ornstein in Panama gearresteerd en in een gevangenis opgesloten vanwege zijn kritische artikelen over fraude en corruptie in dat land.

Ornstein werkte sinds 2000 in Panama, waar hij radioreportages maakte en een weblog schreef over o.a. zakenlieden die investeringen met grote winstkansen aanboden, maar hun klanten van hun inleg beroofden. Enkele van die zakenlieden sleepten Ornstein voor het gerecht wegens ‘smaad’ en ‘belediging’ en Ornstein werd, zonder dat hij de kans kreeg zich te verdedigen, tot 38 maanden cel veroordeeld.

Zijn collega en goed vriend Gilles Frenken reisde naar Panama, zocht Ornstein op in de gevangenis, en volgde de acties achter de schermen om Ornstein weer op vrije voeten te krijgen.

‘Lachen met Kanker’ 2015

[ Laughing with Cancer ]

Schrijver en Volkskrant-columnist Arthur Van Amerongen is geobsedeerd door kanker.
Zijn vader, moeder en broertje zijn overleden aan kanker en driekwart van zijn vriendenkring is er inmiddels aan overleden.
Recentelijk kreeg zijn goede vriend Albert de Lange te horen dat hij is uitbehandeld.
De Lange beschrijft zijn lotgevallen wekelijks in de Parool-column Uitbehandeld.
Samen met zijn vriend Rob Muntz gaat Van Amerongen afscheid nemen van de Lange.

Van Amerongen heeft tevens een knobbeltje in zijn nek en is bang.
Muntz herkent van Amerongen nauwelijks nog terug: de ooit zo woeste schrijver rookt niet meer, drinkt niet meer, is volledig gestopt met drugs en zweert bij zijn sapcentrifuge en zijn antikankerdieet van bieten- en wortelsap.
Hij leidt een teruggetrokken bestaan in de wildernis van de Algarve, samen met zijn drie honden.

Muntz besluit hem op te zoeken, samen met programmamaker Willem Davids die net genezen is van prostaatkanker.
Muntz valt van de ene in de andere verbazing in deze inktzwarte radiodocumentaire over kanker (Die trouwens ook als een komische persiflage op het narcistische egodocument Retour Hemel van Mark Bos beluisterd kan worden).

‘Verloren Zonen – een eeuw vrijwillig ten oorlog” 2014

[ Lost sons – a century voluntarily war ]

Moeten we trots zijn of treuren over jonge mannen die telkens weer ten strijde trekken? Twee ouders over hun gesneuvelde zonen en de zin van oorlog, van de loopgraven in België tot de missie in Afghanistan en Nederlandse jongeren die afreizen naar Syrië.
Samen met generaal buiten dienst Peter van Uhm reizen radiomakers Hasan Evrengün en Robert Wichink naar militaire begraafplaatsen in de Vlaamse Westhoek om antwoord te vinden op die vraag. Voor Van Uhm is het de eerste keer dat hij zich op de slagvelden van de Eerste Wereldoorlog begeeft. Hij praat over herdenken en gedenken en spreekt uitgebreid over zijn eigen gesneuvelde zoon Dennis van Uhm.
Peter, de zoon van de Duitse beeldhouwster Käthe Kollwitz, stierf in de eerste weken van de Eerste Wereldoorlog als soldaat. In de documentaire ‘Verloren Zonen’ kruisen de paden van vader Van Uhm en moeder Kollwitz elkaar. Uiteindelijk staat Van Uhm oog in oog met het Treurende Ouderpaar, een beeldengroep van Kollwitz op het Duitse ereveld Vladslo.
Zowel vader Van Uhm en moeder Kollwitz proberen zin te geven aan het verlies van hun zonen, maar ze trekken beiden een andere conclusie. Kollwitz zegt met haar beelden ‘Nooit meer Oorlog’, terwijl van Uhm respect blijft houden voor “jongelui die bereid zijn om hun nek uit te steken voor een betere wereld en daarbij -als ze pech hebben- sneuvelen.” Ook jongens die vanuit Nederland naar Syrië gaan om daar te vechten verdienen respect, volgens de oud generaal. Maar hij is het niet eens met hun idealen.

Verloren Zonen is een programma van Hasan Evrengün, Robert Wichink en Joost Wilgenhof. De dagboekfragmenten van Käthe Kollwitz werden gelezen door Yvonne Scholten.

De muziek in deze documentaire is afkomstig uit het ‘World War One Project’ van Konrad Koselleck. Hij nam de eerste wereldoorlog als vertrekpunt voor een muzikaal drama. Deze voorstelling is een samenwerking tussen Koselleck’s bigband, acteur en trompettist Hans Dagelet en zangeres Ellen ten Damme. Eén van de gastsolisten is Claron MC Fadden.

[ The France of the Tour ]

The Tour de France is much more than just a cycling event.
Every summer weather is three weeks a major social and cultural event.
The television and radio messages most about the sporting developments in stages.
Much less attention is paid to what is happening outside the course.
In ‘The France of the Tour’ is about those spheres, to the people along the many paths, French, but also Dutch.

Jeroen Wielaert in the Tour of 2012 the recordings started for this special Holland Doc radio documentary.
He positioned himself along the way, spoke spectators experienced the noise of musicians and advertising caravan and interviewed Raymond Poulidor, icon of the Tour.
This spring followed the interviews with no less legendary Dutch riders who have their own experiences on French roads: Henk Faanhof, Gerrit Voorting and Jan Janssen. Bauke Mollema is the young person who is about to start in Corsica. The centenary edition of the Tour

[ Champion with Krienbühl and Clapskate ]

The patent on the clapskate was already registered in 1894

The skate was at the top until 1996 really in use, by the Dutch women’s team.

When Tonny de Jong directly benefit appeared to have followed the foreign competition quickly, and all at the Olympic Winter Games 1998 in Nagano drove almost every skater on clapskates.
A veritable rain of world records followed, many record was multiple seconds tightened

We can now hardly imagine pre-clap skate era, but 15 years ago, kept the minds busy.

An introduction of any material improvement whatsoever in the skating world comes not without a fight, because the familiar ‘skate’ feeling in a contest skater paramount.
Willem Davids then made up the balance.

Skate technician Jos de Koning, skate historian Jelmer Kuipers and skate manufacturer Zandstra, watching – with speedskaters Ard Schenk, Hein Vergeer, Rintje Ritsma and skating coach Leen Pfrommer -,to the future and history of the clap skate, the suit and better runners.

2005 – Voorkom Sloop Electrobuurt ▶ – RVU – [+AUDIO]

[ No Demolition neighborhood ‘Electrobuurt’ ] – program from the series: ‘Club van 100’

The Hilversum neighborhood ‘Electrobuurt’ should probably be demolished due to the poor condition of the housing. The residents have to move back later to come into a new rented house on the same spot.

The residents do not accept this. And certainly not the way Housing Association ‘Het Gooi en Omstreken’ thinks the inhabitants equally to throw. “A letter on your mat, or you just want to leave.”

At a meeting: preliminary sketches of the new district. Nothing concrete, and very suffocating. Care about the future is great. Indeed, revenues plates change, housing benefit nibble every year something, and the whole social network is now broken.

The residents of the neighborhood ‘Electro’ (176 houses in five streets) feel heavy duped. Young and old. But they feel strongly. An action committee has been established. They let it not down! Willem Davids reports.

Ricardo “Arístides” Bekema has been to Cuba in search for his “Muzical Roots”.
There he had many help from his friends, Eva de la Caridad Griňán & Gabino
Jardines Cisneros. These great musicians play the traditional Cuban trova and are
well known and respected throughout the province of Oriënte de Cuba. But being a musician in Cuba is not
always easy. To make a living and perform for the greater public.

“I want to give these people a change to come to Europe and perform in theatres and festivals. To let them
come to the Netherlands is not the difficult part but then… I personally don’t know any organizations which
can promote such kind of great artists…”

Who can help them…?
Willem Davids talks with Ricardo Bekema and his guitar teacher Huib Wilkes (El Payo Humberto) about his unusual request.

Worse: The Inburgerking ‘is deep in his heart, really a good guy.

He has an alternative integration course for immigrants – ‘hundred euros contemporaries, ‘illegal’-in offer and he asks during a conference, from the audience, to Minister Verdonk when Morocco to the European Union will be allowed.
He states, playfully, to the matters in many debate programs on the same channel hardly follow.
In ‘De Inburgerking’ may found on the street rapper queuing, in its programs and marketers get the word homosexual Muslims.
All clichés come in the past broadcast from discriminatory hit singles from the ‘good old days’, to the unreliable immigrant who appointments fails after twenty years and still do not speak Dutch.

‘De 33ste Ronde van Wernhout’ 1995

1995 – De 33ste Ronde van Wernhout ▶ – RVU – [+AUDIO]

[ The 33th Ronde of Wernhout ]
Wernhout is a church village of the municipality Zundert with 2243 inhabitants, situated on the old highway between Paris and Amsterdam. The village has two annual highlights, the flower end of August and the fair in conjunction with the cycling race, the end of September.
The latter event is very Wernhout upside; January is with might and gathered everything on time done and dusted to have. Who takes care of the fences, who guarded them, who cares for the coffee, the potential patient transport and who is this year’s Wernhoutse Round-Miss? Everything is to perfection discussed and settled.
The Wernhoutse cycling weekend is the most important Sunday, then the A Amateurs ridden.

The local favorite was in 1995 Jack Vriens. Previously he explains step by step how he first with arms raised on the Finish in his own village will go. Sunday is the day. Will dream and reality match?
