Berlin Babylon

Directed by: Hubertus Siegert, D 2001, 88 min.
For four years, director Hubertus Siegert accompanied the reconstruction of Berlin with a camera in hand. He documents the before and after of this radical urban transformation, showcases construction sites from unusual perspectives, and allows politicians and architects to debate the future visage of the city. His film does not remain neutral but takes a critical, at times ironic stance. It tells a story of the melancholy of a city that strives with all its strength to regain its destroyed structure and overcome the shadows of the past.
