1998

The Story -told in a silent movie- is about a man, who wants to take his hard-earned vacation: A sea cruise to Norway. A bridge shall help him to save some time and shorten the way around a harbor. But the bridge folds and the shortening ends up in a trap. But a little time before the departure of the ferry the bridge goes down again. The man hastens to the layer - but in vain: The ship is already gone and the vacation is ruined.
The film is a satire about a bridge in Kiel called "Drei-Feld-Zug-Klappbrücke". It is a fold-bridge. For many inhabitants it is a sign for a totally wrong town planing.
