Ruben Terlou & Jelle Brandt Corstius

We live in a rapidly changing world. That world is the stage of journalists Ruben Terlou and Jelle Brandt Corstius. In their new theatre performance, these born storytellers take you on a journey through Eastern Europe and Asia.

In Traveling through a new world, the new geopolitical reality is given a human face. Terlou and Brandt Corstius tell the bigger story based on the meetings for their VPRO series. They give us an insight into their lives as documentary makers and all the poignant moments and special events behind the scenes. What drives them to keep traveling?

We travel along the contours of a new world order, where the hegemony of the US has fallen away and where the vacuum is filled by China and Russia. Where democracies are replaced by autocracies. Where smaller countries such as Taiwan and Ukraine are in danger of losing out. And where Europe must find a new path.
