HSV legend Holger Hieronymus is a “second home” and prefers to come when it is really “nice and windy” and lonely in Wenningstedt-Braderup. The doctor explains why he sees no greater meaning in life than accompanying people in an island village from the cradle to their deathbed. Montefusco family of artists describes her journey through the metropolises of Europe to a colorful life with three small island children.
