About
A black-and-white documentary portrait of Hiddensee, tracing the Baltic island’s attraction for artists and holidaymakers from the 1920s to the present.
Annekatrin Hendel’s black-and-white documentary Hiddensee is a portrait of the Baltic island of Hiddensee and its pull on artists and holidaymakers from the early twentieth century to the present. It travels back to the 1920s, when members of the intellectual avant-garde spent time there, among them silent-film star Asta Nielsen and Nobel laureate Gerhart Hauptmann, and it considers the island’s connection with figures such as Gret Palucca. The film also looks at Hiddensee today as a place to live, an excursion destination and a site of local politics. It includes appearances by singer Jürgen Drews and cabaret artist Uwe Steimle, and actress Barbara Schnitzler speaks about her father, Karl-Eduard von Schnitzler. Political upheavals in Germany and their traces on the island run through the film.
