Van Erp displays the mechanics behind the Dutch tourism industry. Key figures behind events and destinations are followed, like the manager of Zutphen city promotion in his attempt to lure more tourists, the Efteling theme park director working on the latest attraction and the manager of Batavia Stad outlet store running the Christmas sale. With his traditional tongue-in-cheek style, he gives a good view on what happens behind the scenes of "a day out".

In Fear, documentary filmmaker Michiel van Erp creates a collage of inhabitants of the city of Amsterdam who struggle with various anxiety disorders. Today, more patients with anxiety disorders seek professional help than those who suffer from depression, making anxiety the number one mental illness in the Netherlands. This film will show how a small number of those patients attempt to overcome their fears, in order to get on with their lives in the crowded cosmopolitan city that Amsterdam is today.
