flüstern & SCHREIEN
DDR, 1988, 120 min. 
Director: Dieter Schumann
Documentary 

As a documentary “rock report” about the underground music scene in the GDR, flüstern & SCHREIEN provides insights into the everyday lives of young bands of the 1980s such as “Silly,” “Sandow,” and “Feeling B.” Enriched with statements from fans and young people in a wide variety of circumstances, the music film reflects the protests, desires, and hopes of a subculture that uses the medium of music to express its criticism of the system.

The film series "Against it! - Indignation, protest and resistance in film" is presented by the Goethe-Institut Montreal in collaboration with students from Collège Maisonneuve.The donations collected at these screenings will be used to fund a trip for students to Berlin as part of the Berlin International Film Festival in February 2026.
