With a light tone and open gaze, filmmaker Okki Poortvliet follows a hunting group in the Dutch countryside. She observes the hunt and follows hunter Geert as he prepares the animals days later. Through these acts, the film reveals the hunters’ relationship to death while touching on rural neglect, and the idea that no untouched nature remains in the Netherlands.
