Afternoon cinema: Striche ziehen

A film by Gerd Kroske

A white line across the colorful side of the Wall in West Berlin. An art action that ended with an arrest in 1986. The back-story takes place in the Weimar punk scene of the 1980s, where small anarchic free spaces were defended against state normalism: Turn the state into cucumber salad! More than thirty years later, it turns out that there was a leak. A betrayal is suddenly in the air. The film tells of the tension between subculture and dictatorship.

German with English subtitles.
