Westernising East Berlin

Episode 3 of 3

Award-winning Berlin-based feature maker Jens Jarisch explores the shifting identity of several places in the former eastern sector of the city.

Series in which German programme-makers reflect and report on aspects of the country that rarely, if ever, find their way into the British media.

Award-winning Berlin-based feature maker Jens Jarisch explores the shifting identity of five places in the former eastern sector of the city.

For Jarisch, Berlin is a landscape of dreams and nightmares. His tortured picture of low-life on the city's Kurfurstenstrasse (Die K) won some of radio's biggest prizes. Now, he again turns to the city to meet the denizens of several iconic places that were famed in the days of the GDR. He finds that some have changed completely and yet others remain much as they were 20 years ago.
