The protagonists of this film, all still active members of the community today, recall those early years in the city. Theirs are memories of a community that fought steadily for its existence, and of its change, right up to the fall of the Wall. Faced with considerable social repression in the 1970s, a collective gay identity began to emerge, and the \u2018West Berlin homosexual campaign\u2019 called for the abolition of paragraph 175 and the overthrow of patriarchy. Ruined buildings become the venues for new ways of living together such as all-male communes or the \u2018queer house\u2019. Cottaging, East-West affairs, leather bars, drag performances in the subway \u2013 an anarchic kind of joy outshines past suffering. A decade later, AIDS was to hit Berlin. After Out in Ost-Berlin (Out In East Berlin) Jochen Hick explores queer lifestyles in the West of the city and the roots of a fascination that the metropolis still holds as a refuge \u2013 and not just for gay men. A fascinating journey through time featuring previously unpublished archive material.<\/span><\/p>\n Official selection at Berlin IFF 2017.<\/span><\/p>\n ADVISORY RATING<\/b>: 18 years<\/span><\/p>\n DIRECTOR’S FILMOGRAPHY<\/b>:<\/span><\/p>\n 2017 Mein wunderbares West-Berlin<\/span><\/em><\/p>\n 2016 Der Ost-Komplex<\/span><\/em><\/p>\n 2013 Out in Ost-Berlin: Lesben und Schwule in der DDR<\/span><\/em><\/p>\n 2011 DDR unterm Regenbogen<\/span><\/em><\/p>\n 2009 The Good American<\/span><\/em><\/p>\n 2008 East\/West \u2013 Sex & Politics<\/span><\/em><\/p>\n 2006 Hallelujah!
