What the creator captured
Pointer (KRO-NCRV) investigated the escalating military tension at the NATO border by documenting Russian expansion through satellite imagery and firsthand border visits. The creator experienced the intensity of military life through a simulated arrest and explored the growing necessity of reservists in both the Netherlands and Lithuania. The journey highlighted a shift from journalistic observation to considering a personal role in national defense due to the hybrid threats posed by Russia.
