A Stasi Comedy
Comedy
East Berlin, early 1980s: Ludger is hired by the Stasi to spy on the oppositional arts scene in Prenzlauer Berg. But when he falls in love with the mysterious Nathalie, he has to choose between a life as a celebrated underground poet and his career as a Stasi agent. A choice that will turn back on him 30 years later.
VIBE
A charmingly absurd and witty period comedy, it feels like a bittersweet dance between personal desire and political duty. Expect a lighthearted yet reflective exploration of identity, love, and the ironic twists of fate under the watchful eye of the state, all wrapped in a quirky East Berlin aesthetic.
