Caspar David Friedrich is considered one of the greatest landscape painters ever. Almost forgotten after his death, his misty landscapes and lonely mountains were able to unfold an undreamt-of effect in the 20th century. The documentary tells of the painter’s life in Greifswald and Dresden and searches for traces in the Elbe Sandstone Mountains and on the Baltic Sea. Directed by Nicola Graef and Frauke Schlieckau. A Lona Media production. 52. min.
