Rheingold – Gesichter eines Flusses (2014) poster

The Rhine is the center of the European soul, the continent's largest and most important river. Over thousands of years, it has formed unique cultural landscapes on its way from the high Alps to the North Sea, in which peoples and nature have shaped each other. On its way from the Gotthard massif to the sea, it connects six countries: Switzerland, Austria, Liechtenstein, Germany, France and the Netherlands. For centuries, the Rhine separated the Germans from France, but for almost 70 years it has connected these two countries. But Luxembourg, Belgium and Italy are also within its sphere of influence. Film follows the course of the river exclusively from a bird's eye view and presents a fascinating panorama from the center of Europe that develops its full power on the big screen. From above, our homeland is no longer the same: the glittering floodplains of the Rhine are reminiscent of the Caribbean, the meadows in the alluvial plains look like the Serengeti.
