This book is a travel narrative of a different kind. The viewer travels through time while reading, yet remains in the same place, the village of Berka in Thuringia. The village was accompanied photographically by three photographers of one family over 70 years, between 1950 and 2022. It is an unusual project, owed to several coincidences, that tells much about this country, the village, its people and how things have developed.
