Holland for gold
Production sound | Episode Beijing - Minke Booij
In each episode of Holland Gaat Voor Goud (‘Holland For Gold’), a three-part documentary series produced for television, two gold medalists return to the city where they achieved their greatest Olympic success — and let their hair down at the Holland Heineken House.
After previously winning the bronze (2000) and silver (2004) playing in the Dutch women’s field hockey team, Minke Booij was captain in 2008. Looking across from what used to be the pitch in Beijing, she explains how she was able to access the joy of playing, and feeling grateful to finish her career like this. ‘It had been a long time since since I could prepare for a match this relaxed. I looked forward to showing what I could do one more time.’
