„Der Wind der Veränderung blies bis in die Ruinen unserer Republik. Der Sommer kam und Berlin war der schönste Platz auf Erden. Wir hatten das Gefühl im Mittelpunkt der Welt zu stehen. Dort wo sich endlich was bewegte. Und wir bewegten uns mit.“ (Alex in Good bye Lenin! )

Less hectic and glamorous than New York or Paris, Berlin moves to a unique tempo that infuses its architecture, culture and citizens. With its remarkable and catastrophic history, the city of Berlin has played many roles in the 20th century, emerging as one of the world’s most fascinating and enduring cities.
