Synopsis

A journey into the amazing parallel universe of East Berlin's fashion designers and experts in the art of survival. In the midst of the constraints of life in the GDR, there existed a fantasy world where it was possible to be individual and follow your own drummer. The most important characteristic of this bohemian scene was one's personal style. But this was not something that could be purchased off the rack in the GDR. It was up to you to create your own image--to create your style with your own hands. Here, we observe the desires, the passion and the dreams that were tried and tested, lived and performed in the shadow of the Berlin Wall.
