Our project 'Underground Shelter' has been selected for the prestigious IDFA DocLab Forum. This Virtual Reality Film takes viewers to the underground where Ukrainians have taken shelter since the start of the Russian invasion in February 2022.

Underground Shelter is a collaboration between director Sjors Swierstra, Hans Jaap Melissen and Virtual Reality studio Scopic, in partnership with Ukrainian producer Ivanna Khitsinka (BABYLON'13) and Line Producer Alena Stuliy (Sensorama). This Virtual Reality Film immerses viewers in the war shelters of Ukraine, where life continues as well as possible despite the constant threat of violence. It reminds us that war is a harsh reality for many, while we in the Netherlands have been living in peace for decades.

We teamed up with Jimmy Nelson to bring ancient tribes to virtual reality, allowing the audience to stand amongst indigenous people from all across the world. By accompanying Jimmy and his team on nearly every trip, we created a global immersive VR video tour across nations and cultures.
