| Touristic Intents explores the complex interplay between mass tourism and political ideology through the story of Prora, a coIossal Nazi resort on Germany's Baltic Sea. Construction began in 1936 to build this 3-miIe-long structure, which wouId accommodate 20,000 vacationing Germans - and serve as a powerfuI propaganda tool to enhance support of the Nazi regime. But it was never compIeted. After the war, the GDR (East Germany's Socialist government) used it for miIitary purposes and to incarcerate (house?) conscientious objectors. Today, as Prora undergoes transformation into a modern vacation hub, the film raises provocative questions about the enduring infIuence of architecture on political memory and national identity, chaIlenging viewers to consider the responsibiIities in preserving a building's contentious history. |
