Berlin on Film | B-Movie: Lust & Sound in West Berlin

B-MOVIE: Lust & Sound in West-Berlin 1979-1989

Berlin in the ’80s was like a B-MOVIE: colourfully cheap and trashy, anxious and ambitious, clubbed and caned, stoned and strung out, drunk, drugged and – just very special.

Made using mostly unreleased TV and film footage, photos and original interviews, B -MOVIE tells the story of life in a divided city, a cultural interzone in which everything and anything seemed possible in a place unlike anywhere else in Europe. It’s a fast-paced collage of stories from a frenzied but creative decade, starting with punk and ending with the Love Parade, all from a city where the days are short and the nights are endless.
