Synopsis
In 1989 the Berlin Wall comes down. A city divided for nearly half a century begins to rebuild. With its destruction, the Wall left fallow many square miles of what was now prime urban real estate. Shot over a 5-year period, the chronicle records the myriad controversies at the heart of a massive building campaign by international companies anxious to make their mark in the new European capital. Among the leading architects brought in to seize the moment are Gunther Behnisch, Werner Durth, Meinhard von Gerkan, Godfrid Haberer, Helmut Jahn, Joseph Paul Kleihues, Ioeh Ming Pei, Rem Koolhaas, Hans Kollhoff, Axel Schultes and Renzo Piano.
