B-MOVIE: Lust & Sound in West-Berlin 1979-1989 (2015)

B-MOVIE is a documentary about music, art, and chaos in the wild West Berlin of the 80s. Before the Iron Curtain fell, artists and communards, squatters and hedonists of every color roamed here. The walled-in city was a creative melting pot for subculture and pop culture, "Genial Dilletantes" and world stars. B-MOVIE tells the final decade of the divided city, from punk to the Love Parade, with authentic film material and original interviews. Featuring Annette Humpe, Blixa Bargeld, Nena, Nick Cave, David Bowie, Gudrun Gut, Westbam, Joy Division, Zazie de Paris, Die Toten Hosen, the "real" Heino, Einstürzende Neubauten, Die Ärzte, The Unknown, Malaria!, Notorious Reflexes and many more.
