Subjects included the Baekelandt gang and the Order of the Templars. During the 1970s, he directed 'Vlaanderen Vakantieland' and its precursor 'Boeketje Vlaanderen'. He was among the first non-Chinese directors allowed into Communist China, where he made a documentary in 1976. As a writer, he worked on 'Kliniek met de 7 verdiepingen' (1974), 'Zo met de zoo in huis' (1970), and acted in 'Hee (Dag meneer)' (1971). He died on April 13, 2010.
