Silence of the Tides is a poetic film about the largest tidal wetland in the world, The Wadden Sea. The driving force of the film is the breathing of the Wadden: the inhaling and exhaling of the tides. It’s a film of cycles involving the rolling life of flora and fauna, and it’s a film of contrast throughout the four seasons, life and death, storm and silence, the masses and the individual. All set against a backdrop of sky, water, wind, mist and constantly changing light. The film plays witness to the ongoing relationship between humankind and nature.
A discussion with Dr. Franziska Torma (Rachel Carson Center) will follow the screening.
The original version of the film will be shown with German subtitles. The discussion will be held in German.
Free and open to the public.
