Langs de IJssel(2023)

Langs de IJssel is a documentary series following actor Huub Stapel as he explores one of the Netherlands' most unusual rivers. Unlike most Dutch waterways that flow east to west, the IJssel runs northward, shaping the landscape and communities along its banks in distinctive ways. Stapel investigates the river's historical significance and its influence on the people who call its shores home, uncovering how this quirky waterway has carved both geography and culture across the region. The series combines travel, history, and human interest as it traces the IJssel's unique path through the Dutch countryside.
