About
A documentary about music, art and chaos in 1980s West Berlin, centred on Mark Reeder's move there in 1978 and the city's creative scene.
B-Movie: Lust & Sound in West-Berlin 1979-1989 is a documentary about music, art and chaos in West Berlin during the 1980s. Before the Iron Curtain fell, the walled city was home to artists and communards, squatters and hedonists, and became a creative melting pot for pop and subcultures, dilettantes and international stars. The film centres on Mark Reeder, who appears as himself. A punk from Manchester, he settled in West Berlin in 1978 and found himself among Factory Records, Einstürzende Neubauten, Malaria!, Nick Cave and the beginnings of techno. Blixa Bargeld, David Bowie, Eric Burdon, Nick Cave, Christiane Felscherinow, Gudrun Gut and Keith Haring also appear as themselves. The documentary covers the final decade of the divided city.
