Santiano – Keiner geht verloren – Die Doku

Santiano Keiner geht verloren follows the Schleswig Holstein band Santiano, a group known for a sea shanty flavored rock that keeps landing at the top of the charts and drawing fans from across generations. The documentary looks back over the past decade since the band formed, tracing how their distinctive sound and image turned fans into a devoted following. It foregrounds the people behind the music as much as the music itself, mixing personal anecdotes with performance footage. The film sketches a rise marked by hard work, setbacks and moments of luck, while staying focused on the ongoing life of the group rather than any single turning point. Fans get a front row seat to rehearsal rooms and intimate venues, where the chemistry among members is palpable and the toll of constant touring sometimes shows in their tired smiles. The documentary lets the music tell the story as much as the words.

Directed by Jakob Legner, the film is a German documentary that traces a decade in the life of Santiano. It weaves interviews with band members, backstage moments and concert footage to show how their distinctive sailor sound found a broad audience.
