a film by Jochen Hick
107 min | Germany | 2017

Mein wunderbares West-Berlin (My Wonderful West Berlin) describes gay life of West Berlin, in the dynamic period between the end of WWII and the fall of the Berlin Wall. The stories and experiences of political activists, party-goers, hedonists, club owners, musicians, fashion designers, a DJ, and a make-up artist paint a vivid picture of the gay scene in that period. The viewers will travel through time to a hitherto unknown West Berlin. The film is the second part of filmmaker Jochen Hick’s Berlin trilogy. The final part of the trilogy will focus on the period after the fall of the Wall, up until today.

The Embassies of Germany and France in Bucharest celebrate the beginning of Bucharest Pride 2018 with the projection of the film Mein wunderbares West-Berlin at the Cinema Elvire Popesco.

The screening will be followed by a Q&A session with Andrei Luca, film critic, and Wieland Speck, part of tha cast, and also the creator of the Teddy Awards and the curator of the Panorama section at Berlinale.

The event will be followed by a reception in the beautiful garden of the French Institute.
