To coincide with the beginning of this years Berlinale film festival, and getting into the film crazy spirit that this time of year brings, the Circus has organised a very special treat for 5 lucky guests, as we visit one of Berlin oldest and most atmospheric independent cinemas to catch a screening of Metropolis… and wait for it… accompanied with a live performance of the music score by the Babylon Orchestra!!!!

Here’s what the Babylon have to say about the film screening:

” These are the Roaring Twenties!

In 310 days of shooting, with 36,000 extras and 200,000 costumes and the gigantic budget of five million Reichsmarks – a universal, timeless subject was transformed into pictures that have not lost their fascination to this day. (Deutsche Kinemathek)

Like no other film, METROPOLIS represents the heyday of the German silent film made in Berlin – Babelsberg. Electricity got things moving, lighting up the nights and the asphalt.

The engine drove the car and the airplane, and the lift grew the skyscrapers. The cinematograph threw the vision / illusion of a future metropolis on the white walls of the cinema palaces and the people rose from the catacombs and demanded his fair share. A new era was born and is brought to life on the gold-framed canvas by the Babylon Orchestra Berlin in Babylon, built in 1929 in old / new splendor.

Metropolis.

New edition (June 2023) of the salon orchestra score, with original music by Gottfried Huppertz”

Join us as we take a guided tour at the German History Museum, discovering the life of the one and only Wolf Biermann, former East German dissident and modern day cultural icon. Here’s what the German History Museum has to say about the exhibition:

“Wolf Biermann is one of the most famous songwriters in Germany – East and West. His expulsion from East Germany in 1976 was a political turning point and an admission of helplessness on the part of the SED party leadership. Unlike less well-known artists in the GDR, Biermann had become too popular to put him in jail and too unpredictable to let him perform in public.

Many of his songs, ballads and poems have outlasted the original circumstances of their making. “Warte nicht auf bessre Zeiten” (Don’t wait for better times), “Ermutigung” (Encouragement), “Ballade vom preußischen Ikarus” (Ballad of the Prussian Icarus) have become classics. The exhibition presents the life and work of the poet and songwriter interwoven with the events of “German-German” history.”

Join us for a walk through a neighbourhood that was once Berlin’s industrial heartland, known as ‘Red Wedding’ for its support of the Communists in the 1920s, and now a district with a thriving DIY-cultural scene recently voted 4th Coolest Neighbourhood in the World by Time Out. On the walk you will hear stories from of street-battles in the Weimar Republic and life in the divided city, get some tips from the present including tips for friendly bars and microbreweries… and learn a bit about Berlin’s 19^th and 20^th century history along the way.

Local writer Paul Scraton is a resident of Wedding, and much of his novel BUILT ON SAND is set on and around the route of the walk.

The grounds of the former Stasi headquarters, now Campus for Democracy, was once the centre of power for the East German secret police. What role did the archive play in the system of surveillance? Who used to work here, and how is the area used today?

This exclusive tour takes us closer to the Stasi than ever before, as we uncover the records archive, and take a closer look at the “Stasi files” and its role in the overall system of Surveillance.

Tour guide Mark Meadow’s is a reporter for the Deutche Welle, Germany’s national broadcaster, and has a deep understanding of the city’s cultural history.

Join us as we take a guided tour of the fascinating exhibition “Everyday life in the GDR”.

The German Democratic Republic (GDR), or Communist East Germany, ceased to exist at midnight on 3 October 1990. It was neither democratic, nor was it a republic. It was a dictatorship in which there were no free elections, no division of powers, and no freedom of movement. Millions of Germans lived in Communist East Germany for 40 years – so what was it like?

How did the country function in which for 40 years a bread roll cost 5 pfennigs, but there were as good as no bananas? The country that built the highest TV tower in Germany, but did not provide enough housing to go around? That produced beautiful fairy-tale films, but forced critical artists into exile?

The permanent exhibition on “Everyday Life in the GDR” shows what East Germans’ lives were like in the 1970s and 1980s – at work, in public and in private. It shows how the Communist regime shaped everyday life, how people coped with the lack of things and the borders, and how they created free spaces for themselves.
