Lonnie van Brummelen and Siebren de Haan are collaborating artists and filmmakers. Their works explore geopolitical landscapes, such as international borders and sites of global trade, as well as the material impacts of resource extraction on local communities and ecosystems. Since 2014, they have created three feature-length participatory documentaries: Episode of the Sea (2014), Stones Have Laws (2018), and Monikondee (2025), the latter two co-directed with the Surinamese theatre maker Tolin Alexander. Their films have screened at film festivals worldwide including IDFA, TIFF, CPH:DOX, Mar del Plata, MoMA’s Documentary Fortnight, ICA’s Frames of Representation.
