A quiet summer film with great resonance: Hiddensee at filmforum Duisburg
With HIDDENSEE, the filmforum Duisburg presents a documentary by Annekatrin Hendel, which uncovers the island between the Baltic Sea, history, and present as a poetic space of remembrance. The screening will take place on Tuesday, August 25, 2026, at 5:45 PM and lasts 123 minutes; the film is rated for ages 0 and up. ([filmforum.de](https://filmforum.de/filme/hiddensee-51557/))
Island, memory, essay film
The film combines landscape observation with cultural historical depth: Gerhart Hauptmann, Asta Nielsen, GDR past, and today's perspectives of the mayor merge into an essayistic documentary that shows Hiddensee not as a postcard motif, but as a living place with a literary aura. The black-and-white images focus on atmosphere, not tourist gloss. ([filmforum.de](https://filmforum.de/filme/hiddensee-51557/))
Reading atmosphere in the cinema hall
The filmforum is known as a communal cinema in the heart of Duisburg and offers a program culture that is particularly suitable for sophisticated documentaries.
