This is where imperial Germany’s grand health resorts of Bansin, Heringsdorf and Ahlbeck were built. Heinz Brinkmann, who was born in Heringsdorf, traces the eventful history of his island.

Ich sehe hier noch nicht die Sonne
Heinz Brinkmann
Pipeline workers at the end of 1989. Daily life seems as ever to be determined by the rhythm of work, and the time spent in the workers' cabins. The camera films the excited, partly comical (though not to be taken any less seriously), debates on the changes happening in the country, and in this way tries to show more about the political events and the opinions of these workers, than usual documentary techniques can achieve.
