Biography

Roel Swierenga is the founder of the Hansa Green Tour Foundation in The Netherlands, film maker, organizer of sustainability events, study trips & trade delegations, and speaker at conferences.

As director of the annual Hansa Green Tour event in Europe, an epic road trip with electric and alternative energy vehicles through Northern Europe, he decided to have these inspiring sustainability road trips documented and filmed from the very beginning in 2011 for personal use and to share with all partners, sponsors and participants. Over the years these video documentaries have become more professional and nowadays Hansa Green Tour organizes re-union events where these documentaries are proudly presented to participants, partners and sponsors.

As event director and organizer however Roel Swierenga was mostly guiding the camera crew, busy behind the scenes but not behind the camera himself. Due to the covid pandemic and all events & traveling being cancelled, Roel Swierenga started to train himself in mobile filmmaking, editing and drone flying skills.

Although making private videos already for quite some time, in 2021 he started to professionalize his personal skills and decided to start making a first series of short films, to gain experience and learn the art of (mobile) filmmaking and certify for a professional drone pilot license. With the ambition to grow as a filmmaker and make impactful productions.

The short film PUSHBACK (June 2021) is his first time entry as a filmmaker in the world of film festivals and is running succesfully winning several awards.
