From Hell to Heaven - Lusatia

Home Documentary From Hell to Heaven - Lusatia

In the far southeast of Germany lies a region full of opposites: Lusatia. On the one hand, there are tranquil fishponds and rare animals like European otters, great bitterns, and elk. But only a few kilometers away - a seemingly lifeless lunar landscape! Decades of brown coal mining in the region have left behind giant slag heaps and over-acidic mine lakes. Nowhere else in Germany has the landscape been so extensively and radically changed as here- and yet, the wilderness is returning!
