Berlin Super 80 is a DVD-flashback of early 80s Berlin subculture featuring the city’s underground movie scene who rediscovered Super 8 as an adequate outlet for their creative endeavours.
Accompanied by a compilation of music, covering a huge range of styles and currents - from punk to ingenious dilettantes, this lavish package recalls the walled in city’s unique feel and lifestyle.
By no means a nostalgic review of times long gone, but rather an appraisal of a creative Berlin which to this day exerts its influence on German pop culture and beyond. Featuring “Die tödliche Doris”, “Einstürzende Neubauten”, “Malaria” and many others of the scene’s protagonists.
