A really worthwhile MDR documentary from 2012 about the first half of the river from the source in the Giant Mountains to the Altmark. Elbe lovers should not miss it. With wonderful aerial shots, the likes of which you have never seen before, people, towns and landscapes along the river are presented. Anyone who knows the unique beauty of these natural areas will also work to preserve them. This section of the Elbe must not become a canal like other large rivers in Germany.
