Cornelis is a mythical figure who is half a fisherman and half a rambler. With his sailing vehicle he turns up in places where old stories are threatened by demolition , excavator or oblivion. Cornelis saves precious memories where neighborhoods are demolished , dikes are punched out, land is reclaimed or industrial areas are advancing.
