Capital B – Who Owns Berlin

PLAY


The exciting and entertaining story of how Berlin became the city it is today.

Let yourself be amazed by this gem of a documentary series! A chronicle of housing and life in the metropolis, East-West tensions, urban dreams and nightmares.

Since the fall of the Berlin Wall in 1989, Berlin has taken many detours to transform itself from a rather provincial city into a global metropolis that today resembles both a boomtown and an ungovernable zone. It is a story of idealism and megalomania, of activism and the power of capital, of social advancement and exclusion. CAPITAL B takes us into the slipstream of a unique city and into the battles that have been waged passionately and relentlessly in Berlin for thirty years over one question: Who owns this city?
