Berlinized - Sexy an Eis (2012)

Berlin in the 90s - Aside from the major political upheavals and the commercialized techno culture, a somewhat forgotten parallel universe also shaped the city's aura: The world of basement bars and backyard creatives.
In the free houses and apartments in Berlin-Mitte, after the fall of the Berlin Wall, a scene of very different young people celebrated carefree freedom. Whether a project was promising or not did not matter - they lived from one event to the next experiment, playfully de-establishing art and market. The film "Berlinized - Sexy an Eis" describes this special way of life in a reflective journey back to Berlin-Mitte of the 90s. The filmmaker Lucian Busse, himself an active protagonist of that time, documented the city's transformation, the art scene, clubs, concerts, and the construction sites where the open spaces were constantly being filled with new impersonal office buildings.
