Episode Synopsis

In the late 1970s and early 1980s, Berlin was still a divided city, a Mauerstadt. Many musicians – both from Berlin and abroad – attempted to capture its unique atmosphere of reativity and threat, its Kebabträume and Stasi nightmares. How does music by David Bowie, Iggy Pop, DAF and Nina Hagen transport us back to the Berlin from the past? And what happens when we step into a virtual bar in a virtual East-Berlin in a Cold War-themed videogame, only to hear a gloomy song by Fehlfarben, the NDW-band from Düsseldorf?
