Wild Hamburg

Thoralf Grospitz and Jens Westphalen document which surprising and numerous discoveries they made on their two year search for wild inhabitants living in beautiful city of Hamburg.

 

In Hamburg's blue skies a bird aims for the spire of the Jacobi Church as quick as an arrow: a peregrine falcon. Here the presumably fastest bird ever builds its nest. But it is not the only "wild inhabitant" of the city. You will be surprised by the number of wild animals living in Hamburg, some of which you would not expect to meet here anyway. During their investigations for more than two years, preparing another wild life film, Thoralf Grospitz and Jens Westphalen tracked some clandestine lodgers and show their impressive discoveries.
