Story: It was top secret. No questions were asked and the area in Olst-Wijhe was off limits. It is the time of the whimsical Cold War. What was hidden was the IJssellinie, a military defense line, which was built in the deepest secrecy. To protect ourselves from the Russians. In case of danger, the IJssellinie was put into operation and an area from Zwolle to Nijmegen would be flooded. Theater group De Jonge Honden reveals this big secret in the 'forbidden area'. Back to the 1960s, in the woods of the De Haere estate. A theater spectacle in the open air on the banks of the IJssel.
