A quiet documentary that catches the riverbank-athmosphere

"Angeschwemmt", Nikolaus Geyrhalters first full-lenght documentary, focuses on a place called "Friedhof der Namenlosen" (The Cementary of Unknown Dead), a place, where all those nameless suicides, washed ashore on the Danube-riverbanks have been buried. The film get's the old grave-digger and other people talking about there lives alongside the river and creates a very special athmosphere: you almost get to sense the fog and the dampness of the Danube-meadows.
