La Villette

The documentary features the works of nearly two hundred East German visual and performance artists, such as Christoph Tannert, AG Geige, and Helga Paris. It provides insight into the cultural landscape of East Germany during a time of significant change.

Set in the former La Villette slaughterhouses in Paris, the film documents the rare opportunity for these artists to showcase their work outside of the restrictive environment of the GDR. This exhibition marked a significant moment in art history, reflecting the shifting dynamics of a reunified Germany and the broader European artistic community.
