Description

In the 1980s, culturally contradictory signals emanated from the twin city of Berlin. In the western part, Wim Wenders shoots the brilliant angel film “Heaven over Berlin”. The status quo is invoked everywhere. But East Berlin's cultural scene only appears to be at a standstill. Things begin to bubble up – in Dieter Mann's Deutsches Theater or in Tamara Danz's rock band Silly. The painter Bärbel Bohley becomes an icon of the unruly. The uprising became manifest with the demonstration on November 4, 1989 on Alexanderplatz.
