It was a bit of a shock when ever-loved mayor Jan van Zanen decided to leave ‘our’ Utrecht – moving to The Hague. Replacement was sought after immediately by the city counsel. And what works better nowadays than video? Right; nothing!

Beyond Borders Media hit the streets to see what people in Utrecht expect from a new mayor and to tell the story of the town itself to the new ‘mayor-to-be’. A combination of ‘street-style’ poetry, creative visuals and good old vox-pop interviews. This video is one of our most enjoyable accomplishments of 2020 (even under the coronavirus situation).
