Berlin zur Kaiserzeit - Glanz und Schatten einer Epoche

Berlin zur Kaiserzeit - Glanz und Schatten einer Epoche

1986 · ★ 8.0 · Documentary

This film deals with the contrasts of the Wilhelminian era in Berlin: the splendor of the monarchy, the economic and intellectual vitality of the up-and-coming imperial capital on the one hand, and the misery of the proletarians in the tenements on the other. The documentary sets depressing images of the horrors at the front against the exhilaration of victory at the beginning of the First World War.

The film initially depicts the emptiness and hopelessness of the first days and weeks, but soon public life is more or less organized again. The years 1946/47 are entirely focused on reconstruction. In 1948, the conflict erupts openly, and the division is solidified. Nevertheless, Berlin remains one city; people can still come together, regardless of whether they live in East or West.
