Naturnah - Gesucht wird: Der Schierlings-Wasserfenchel!

The ninth Elbe depression is in full swing. A rare plant almost stopped the Hamburg project: the strictly protected "hemlock water fennel". It is the only one of its kind in the world and only found near Hamburg, on the tidal Elbe, which is shaped by the North Sea tides of low and high tide. If the destruction of the Elbe's natural banks continues as it has been, it cannot be ruled out that even the last intact tidal floodplains - including the hemlock water fennel - will be lost.

This film is part of double feature 5.
