An der Nordseeküste

The documentaries portray the diverse forms of life along the coastlines of the various North Sea states and the changes that these are subject to, whether it be the effects of climate change on the quality of seawater, the animal kingdom and coastal formations, the consequence of young people migrating from the coast to cities, the increase in tourism accompanied by new hotel complexes, or even the effects of unemployment. Each film marks a stage of a journey along the different coastlines and dwells on central questions such as: have the changes that have occurred in coastal regions over recent decades completely altered people's attitudes towards life? Is there perhaps such a thing as a convectional North Sea identity? Or do the inhabitants of the individual North Sea states prefer to dissociate themselves from one another?
