Berliner Blau

1986 · 14 min

A strange, arty provocation that turns a concrete barrier into a canvas for the mind, equal parts playful and unsettling.

Overview
How does the Wall affect the Berlin psyche? This film shows some possibilities, via artistic antics with Vera Schrankl, Thierry Noir and Arthur Kuggeleyn. With the help of the filmmakers' experimental signature, the wall of shame (West) and protective barrier (East) experience a transformation from political entity to a subjective projection surface that can make concrete crumble.
