GETTING TO KNOW THE CITY OF BERLIN<br />

THE <strong>BUSINESS</strong> OF FILM GUIDE<br />

For <strong>the</strong> many international film<br />

executives attending <strong>the</strong> Berlin<br />

Film Festival for <strong>the</strong> first time in<br />

many years The Business of Film has<br />

complied a synopsis of <strong>the</strong> history and<br />

background of Berlin toge<strong>the</strong>r with<br />

selected places of interest, recommended<br />

restaurants, and Alternative Lifestyle<br />

clubs. Getting around Berlin is made<br />

easier by understanding <strong>the</strong> geography<br />

of Berlin’s distinct areas. Berlin is a city<br />

that never sleeps, (<strong>the</strong> Agenda for your<br />

appointments at <strong>the</strong> back of <strong>the</strong> Pocket<br />

<strong>Guide</strong> is on a 24hr clock) with a population<br />

nearing 3.5 million and an area<br />

eight times greater than Paris, it’s<br />

Germany’s largest city. Virtually<br />

destroyed during WWII; post-war it was<br />

divided by <strong>the</strong> Allied Powers. America,<br />

Britain, and France occupied West<br />

Berlin, and Russia controlled <strong>the</strong> East.<br />

The Berlin Wall (1961-89), was grim<br />

witness to <strong>the</strong> city’s division. In 1990<br />

followings <strong>the</strong> dismantling of <strong>the</strong> Wall<br />

Germany was reunited. Its history has<br />

left Berlin with Two city centers: On <strong>the</strong><br />

east, <strong>the</strong> Alexanderplatz television tower<br />

at <strong>the</strong> city’s historical center, Berlin-<br />

Mitte, symbolizes ‘<strong>the</strong> capital of <strong>the</strong><br />

German Democratic Republic’. On <strong>the</strong><br />

west, <strong>the</strong> Mercedes Star atop <strong>the</strong> Europa<br />

Center marks <strong>the</strong> busy Kurfstendamm<br />

center. The Arkaden shopping, entertainment,<br />

residential, and office complex,<br />

has made chic Potsdamer Platz <strong>the</strong> center<br />

of Berlin. Alongside German retailers<br />

and restaurants, international companies<br />

include Eddie Bauer, Starbucks,<br />

McDonalds, Benetton, Swatch, Tony<br />

Roma’s, and Haagen Daz. Reflecting it’s<br />

strong musical and deep cultural roots<br />

Berlin boasts three professional opera<br />

houses, four semi-professional opera<br />

companies, eight symphony orchestras,<br />

ten chamber orchestras, hundreds of choruses,<br />

and copious amateur bands playing<br />

punk to jazz in <strong>the</strong> city’s 150 <strong>the</strong>aters. The<br />

annual February Filmfestspielen is testament<br />

to Berliners love of <strong>the</strong> cinema, <strong>the</strong><br />

city is home to 265 movie <strong>the</strong>aters, <strong>the</strong><br />

most in Germany. Berlin also offers<br />

accessible with one admission price<br />

access to 174 museums, including 17 state<br />

museums .Zoologischer Garten (Zoological<br />

Gardens) is one of <strong>the</strong> world’s largest zoos,<br />

nearly destroyed during WWII. It now<br />

houses 14,000 animals representing 1500<br />

species, Olympiastadion stadium constructed<br />

for <strong>the</strong> 1936 Olympic games, was intended<br />

to showcase Hitler’s ‘master race’athletes.<br />

African-American Jesse Owens made history<br />

by winning four gold medals and today,<br />

Berlin has a street named after him<br />

Olympiastadion is one of <strong>the</strong> few Nazi-built<br />

structures still intact and in use. The memorial<br />

to victims of <strong>the</strong> Nazi regime<br />

Gedenkstatte Plötzensee occupies <strong>the</strong> old<br />

execution chamber in Plötzensee prison<br />

where between 1933-45 over 2500 political<br />

prisoners were killed.<br />

PRENZLAUER BERG<br />

On Bernauer Strasse, separating Mitte<br />

(East) and Wedding (West) Berlin, one<br />

can view Berlin Wall remnants, complete<br />

with border defenses and ‘death strip’. In<br />

<strong>the</strong> former West, <strong>the</strong> Berlin Wall<br />

Documentation Center has extensive displays<br />

and information about <strong>the</strong> Wall’s<br />

history. At <strong>the</strong> Berlin Wall Memorial in<br />

<strong>the</strong> former East, a stretch of Wall forms<br />

part of a Kohlhoff and Kohlhoff artwork.<br />

KANTSTRASSE SQUARE<br />

Kantstrasse square has remained <strong>the</strong> hub of<br />

West Berlin culture even after <strong>the</strong> Wall<br />

came Down. The square dates from 1862<br />

when city planner James Hobrecht placed<br />

plazas at regular intervals throughout <strong>the</strong><br />

city to ensure healthy airflow. In 1926-27,<br />

gardening director Erwin Barth added<br />

greenery, benches, and a playground. The<br />

square and its beautiful perennial borders<br />

were fully restored in 1987.<br />

A second similar center developed around<br />

<strong>the</strong> Hackescher Market, The best example<br />

is <strong>the</strong> famed architecture gallery AEDES,<br />

still standing in its original S-Bahn archway.<br />

SAVIGNYPASSAGE<br />

Savignypassage Berlin’s longest shopping<br />

row is in <strong>the</strong> inner city area. The tramway<br />

running east-west through <strong>the</strong> city, numerous<br />

viaduct arches (<strong>the</strong>re are 757 on <strong>the</strong> 12<br />

km route) have been converted from warehouses<br />

and craft ateliers to shops, restaurants,<br />

and cafes, making Many restaurateurs<br />

and antique dealers previously located<br />

at Nollendorfplatz station’s flea market<br />

have moved to ritzy Bahnhof<br />

Friedrichstrasse.<br />

KREUZBERG<br />

ALTERNATIVE LIFESTYLES<br />

PLACES OF INTEREST<br />

Germany is one of <strong>the</strong> few countries in<br />

Europe which has a very liberal open<br />

approach to alternative lifestyles,<br />

Kreuzberg is where free thinkers settled<br />

before <strong>the</strong> Wall fell. An island of unconventional<br />

attitudes ironically isolated in East<br />

Germany, pacifists came to avoid mandatory<br />

military service; punks squatted in aban-<br />

The Berlin Library<br />

doned houses; gays and lesbians appreciated<br />

<strong>the</strong> repression-free environment which<br />

is worth a visit. Mehringdam 61 houses<br />

three gay and lesbian venues. Melitta<br />

Sundström café offers a cornucopia of<br />

refreshments as well used gay books for<br />

sale (including a large English section).<br />

The Gay Museum and Schwuz nightclub<br />

are located behind Sundström.<br />

The Gay Museum has varying Exhibitions<br />

weekly. The English-speaking staff is helpful,<br />

and <strong>the</strong> museum and archive are good<br />

resources for gay cultural history and current<br />

happenings.With an archive and<br />

library upstairs, <strong>the</strong> large English fiction<br />

collection is free to read, but can’t be<br />

checked out. For those seeking night time<br />

entertainment Schwuz, Berlin’s oldest<br />

gay club, plays mainstream music more<br />

than techno. Nightly <strong>the</strong>mes change from<br />

House to Oldies to Latin. Early evenings<br />

<strong>the</strong> crowd is mixed; by 2 AM, <strong>the</strong> clientele<br />

is predominantly male. On nearby<br />

Oranienstrasse, <strong>the</strong> landmark nightclub<br />

SO36 is very lively. Nightly <strong>the</strong>mes<br />

range from Techno to Oriental, plus <strong>the</strong><br />

Wednesday gay and lesbian Hungry<br />

Hearts singles party. Bingo night’s drag<br />

queen show is reported to be a blast.<br />
