Darßer NaturfilmFestival 2025: Program section "360° Cinema Ship"
Water is the elixir of life in Europe - and a cosmos of diversity: from Estonia's moors to the crystal-clear waterfalls of the Plitvice Lakes, Europe's lakes and rivers could hardly be more different. In France, merciless catfish hunt for pigeons while pelicans fight over the best fish in the Danube Delta. With a unique natural spectacle on Hungary's Tisza and the touching story of the return of the beaver, the film delves into the secrets of European water worlds. Masterfully narrated by Benno Fürmann, the film takes us to the wild and undiscovered corners of our home continent.
