Our movie of the month: Wild Beauty of Germany's Islands

The two documentary films 'Wild Beauty of Germany's Islands' about Sylt and Rügen feel like a short get-away. They take us on a trip to unknown places, where we meet passionate islanders, fascinating nature, diverse wildlife and the odd stubborn sheep. The protagonist, however, is always the breathtaking beauty of the rugged nature of these two popular holiday islands.
