Terwyl Ek Wag

After waiting for sixteen years in 1721, Jean le Roux, buys land between Cape Town and Stellenbosch. Nataniël moves into a historic building on this farm and begins his adventure.

Thousand of settlers and refugees must start with new lives every day. They learn how to cope with very little. Nataniël cooks with the most basic ingredients.

A homecoming is the most important thing an individual or family can be waiting for. Nataniël examines this issue from behind his cooking counter.

Beauty is discovered, made, or cultivated. This timeless wonder has driven humanity for centuries. Creativity appears in the kitchen, studio, garden, table and cupboard.

Even though the pious have been raising their eyebrows and wagging their fingers for centuries, there is nothing wrong with a little bit of flair.

After two years of trials and tribulations, life is unbearable for many artists. Nataniël prepares dishes for rehearsals and the dressing room.

From visiting to being visited, from delivering food to receiving food, when comfort is necessary, the kitchen is visited. Nataniël prepares favourites and receives a visitor.

We are told about the gold at the end of the rainbow from a very young age, and still, we keep on searching. Nataniël finds gold in a cellar, die pantry and a candle holder.

We wait for recovery! The earth, its inhabitants, nature, social structures, the freedom of movement, the darkness of the heart, the guilty pleasures in the kitchen, everything is examined.

Heaps of pills, strange pains, our biggest phobias, instant diets, and internet quacks are nothing new. Too few of us understand the art of moderation, natural products, and discipline.

Stories! Fairytales! Fables! Kinks and art! This week we page through pictures, stories, and recipes. Nataniël believes that a life of imagination brings wings and freedom.

Christmas! Nataniel prepares dishes with a lot of history, old-fashioned techniques and flavors full of memories. He sets the table for a feast and also meets the creator of his favorite gift.

We await the future at Langverwagt. It's a time of looking back, making plans, and hoping for a much better year. Nataniël visits an inspiring workshop and buys a showpiece.

An insightful and fun documentary wherein Nataniël shows what happens during the writing and producing of a music score. A rare look behind the scenes and unique narration.
