Synopsis
Berlin - You Stranger, You Beauty portraits, in seven films, the city of Berlin from 1995-2001, a city in the midst of great change, like no other city in the world. Heinrich Zille, Berlin's great artist and photographer, wouldn't recognize ´´his Berlin´´ anymore, it simply doesn't exist. Seen from seven different perspectives, the films show old remnants of the city, how the most famous square in the world then became Europe's largest construction site, music and street culture and the ever changing cultural and artistic face of the city. The author doesn't describe the exotic beauty of distant islands, but rather the surrounding view of the city as seen through the eye of the camera, which - broken through history, stories, and the many construction sites - suddenly appears as a strange beauty.
