After the demonstration in winter 2013 and the subsequent toilet brush revolution, the Davidwache police station needed a new face.

Rasmus Gerlach recorded their stories for the museum, collecting documents about business feminists, a toilet attendant, and the legendary pub owner Ille, who served drinks in the documentary film “Christmas Eve in Sankt Pauli.”

The Perfect Wave: Big Wave Surfing in Portugal

The small Portuguese coastal town of Nazaré is unique in Europe. It became the Olympus of surfing in the 2010s. Monster waves roll ashore here between late autumn and spring.

The giant waves are spectacular, but they are also extremely dangerous. They have given the former fishing port a new boom, because the activities of the surfers now attracts tourists in droves to the place even in winter. But accidents with serious injuries occur again and again. The documentary shows how the coastal town is handling the new attraction and how Sebastian Steudtner is preparing for a new record ride on the biggest wave on earth.
