Let It Rock!

"Let it Rock!" is a low-budget documentary about the people of the "Mitte" district in Berlin, who look back at the area′s turbulent past since the fall of the Wall, analyze the "now" and talk about their hopes and fears regarding the future of Mitte - the geographical center of the German capital and a very trendy district now full of young people, nightclubs, chic boutiques, art galleries, bars, and loft-style apartments.

The film is based on 150 interviews conducted with night owls, artists, fashion victims, partygoers, those who have moved out and those who have moved in, Mitte skeptics and Mitte fans - all of whom sound out their opinions on the urban and provincial culture in Mitte, the zeitgeist of our time, the quality of parties now and in the past, new architecture in Berlin, the flourishing marketing-pop-culture, and the so-call "Mitte hype".

In a very minimalist style, "Let it Rock!" shows this particular culture of Mitte from the inside out.
