With the song "Borth", Peter Eidam sets a poem by the local poet Martha Müller-Grählert to music in Low German. Both have the town of Barth, which is sung about here, as their birthplace. The images accompanying the song invite you to take a walk through Barth with its sights such as the harbor, the St. Mary's brick church, the observatory and the Fangel tower. Peter Eidam is a songwriter from Fischland-Darß-Zingst. His songs are about that homeland - the small peninsula between the Bodden and the sea. "About the land and the people by the sea, about long journeys and proud ships, the storms and the flood so heavy, about the beauty of this landscape, about farewell and about returning."
