INSIDE PRORA

Synopsis

Some are fascinated by its architectural radicalism: modernist, rationalist and monumental. Others hate this building and consider it highly toxic because of its dark history. Prora, the second largest architectural legacy of the Third Reich after the Nuremberg Reich Party Rally Grounds, polarizes.
The longest building in the world on the German Baltic coast on Rugen stretches over 4.5 kilometers. Prora tells us his and our story: planned Strength-by-joy seaside resort of the Nazi regime, military barracks of the GDR dictatorship, future Baltic seaside resort. 'Monster by the Sea', 'Colossus by Rügen' or 'Führer Block' – his synonyms testify to a superlative with creepy potential.
INSIDE PRORA tells on the one hand German-German history. On the other hand, however, it narrates in the international context. Using special artistic means, it explores some complex phenomena of history in the 20th and 21st centuries, thus penetrating the tacit assumptions from which architecture draws its strength.
