Lichter aus dem Hintergrund

Deutschland 1997/1998 Dokumentarfilm

Lights From Afar

Berlin, the German capital once again, a few years after the fall of the Wall. A city undergoing radical change, changing the lives of its inhabitants at the same time. A young photographer experiences this as a break in his life. He faces an uncertain, disquieting future. He feels like a stranger in his old city.

 

What is his place in this society - whose rules he does not want to learn - just like those of the old GDR? Like his friends from the generation of the "wall children", he tries to find a new identity without losing his old one.
