Since 2016, the Prenzlauerberginale has been showing films from the neighborhood: feature films, documentaries, news, excerpts from reports and music programs. Most of them are “forgotten films” that were only shown once on television, screened as documentaries in arthouse cinemas or produced in Babelsberg. Since then, they have slumbered in the archives.  The film festival also shows major productions such as Solo Sunny and Berlin Ecke Schönhauser, for which Prenzlauer Berg serves as the setting.  The period around 1989 and the years that followed, with their upheavals and uncertainties, are our theme in the 35th year of the fall of the Berlin Wall. Another theme this year is youth and youthful “misbehavior”.
