Berlin Calling
Step into the pulse of 1980s Berlin—a city split by walls but united by rebellion and longing. These three films capture the spirit of a generation navigating identity and transcendence amid the Cold War’s shadow. From the haunting realism of Christiane F. to the radical intimacy of Taxi zum Klo, and the poetic gaze of Wings of Desire, this series invites you to witness Berlin as both battleground and muse.
