Goethe Institut's upcoming Wednesday night film series will begin this Wednesday, September 2nd. The screenings will precede the opening of the touring exhibition Brilliant Dilletantes - Subculture in Germany in the 1980s.
Take a look at the full schedule Here
There are some films in the line-up that are almost never screened, including the first four films in the series. The horror-mystery-sci fi feature "Decoder" is a long-established underground cult favorite with William Borroughs playing a role as “The old man."
The Short experimental program Berlin Super 80 highlights several underground filmmakers working in Berlin from 1978-1984.
Uli Edel (Director and writer of “The Baader-Meinhof Complex”) is scheduled to appear for a rare screening of his film "Christiane F." (in German With English Subtitles), and Rainer Kirberg’s "Die Letzte Rache” ("The Last Revenge”) is a truly intriguing “neo-expressionist” gem.
The program also includes a recent film titled "Punk!" ("Tod den Hippies!! Es lebe der Punk"), which opened in Germany earlier this year and aligns with the sensitivities of the rest of the showcase.
All screenings are free!

The crows knew it from Day One: Berlin 2011 would be a—slightly—happier experience. Normally, when night began to fall, the crows descended upon the frost-bleak trees around Potsdamer Platz and cawcawed for hours, filling the silence of bad cinema, crushed hopes and now-for-real lost illusions with their woe-cum sorrowful sounding songs. Hundreds, maybe thousands of them. The trees were black for birds. Every evening, starting around 5pm or 6pm, reliably—you could set your watch to them (if you take things easy, that is...). Yet, this time around, the crows were nowhere to be seen. Maybe it's true what a friend of TO1..., comrade Möller suggested: It looks as if the crows were trying to make Berlin their permanent home, become true city slickers, which necessitates certain changes of behavior; rings scientifically solid.
