Hardly any other city reveals a wider gap between ambition and reality than Berlin.
Forever wavering between delusions of grandeur and self-loathing – at times a world metropolis, at others a provincial backwater in the Mark.
Jürgen Kuttner reckons this has less to do with Berliners themselves and more with the bunch of clowns acting in their name, and so he’s dedicating an entire evening of video snippets to the beleaguered city: featuring music from East and West, plenty of absurd television clips, and a bona fide “Spree Athenian” on the microphone.
