Old films experience new times at DVHN. And you can watch them from the couch. DVHN, in collaboration with the Drents Archief, broadcasts a Drenthe archive film every Sunday.
Filmmakers have been making images of Drenthe for a hundred years. Amateurs and professionals. In black and white and later in color. This year the Drents Archief looks back on a century of films in the province. We start in the 20s and end in the 90s.
With today: The Drenthe Countryside. Filmmaker J. Poortman records life in the Drenthe countryside in the 1930s. He films the sheep herd of Kraloo (near Eursinge), the shepherd and his dogs. Meanwhile, the hay is collected from the field by horse and carriage and the postman cycles past.
