Berlin is in Germany

About This Movie

So, 'Berlin is in Germany' is a fascinating short film by Hannes Stöhr, and it’s interesting how it later evolved into a feature. The tone is gritty and somewhat introspective, capturing the essence of Berlin in the late '90s, a city still grappling with its post-reunification identity. The pacing feels deliberate; it's not rushed, allowing you to really soak in the atmosphere. The performances, while perhaps not polished, convey a rawness that fits the setting. You can sense that Stöhr had a vision, and it’s intriguing to see how he expanded on these themes of urban life and personal connections in the feature film that followed. A solid piece for those who appreciate the evolution of a filmmaker's work.
