About Gigant des Nordens
The port of Hamburg has experienced and survived many things: epidemics, fires and floods, wars and destruction - but always also reconstruction. This documentary tells the story of how a small jetty on the Elbe became the global port we know today over the course of eight centuries. It is the story of one of Europe's largest ports, its people and their ideas.
Directed by Cristina Trebbi, Stefan Schneider, Gigant des Nordens leans on a strong ensemble — Henning Hartmann, Benjamin Krüger, Philippe Goos — to carry a story that balances spectacle with character.
The film landed with audiences for its craft and performances, and remains one of the most talked-about documentary titles of 2016.
