Mysterious Marinas
A 5-part series by gebrueder beetz filmproduktion
“Mysterious Marinas” tells the story of remote, yet strategically important regions focussing on its marinas. In high-end cineflex images we will immerse ourselves in the stories of old pirate dens, poor fishing villages and jet-set life. It is a refreshingly different view on the conventional travelogue.
