Boys and men of Berlin, a captivating journey through their lives, love affairs, and misdemeanours across the city's turbulent history.
Felix and Walther, two individuals from vastly different social backgrounds, forge an enduring bond in the 1890s Prussian society. Despite their deep-seated class divide, they find common ground and camaraderie, forming a bond that withstands the test of time.
Kaspar and Max, on the other hand, navigate the fraught upheavals of the Weimar Republic by skillfully marketing the only commodity in demand: alcohol. With a keen understanding of the changing social landscape, they exploit the thirst for escapism and create a thriving business, all while navigating the political complexities and moral compromises of the era.
Young Kazimierz, a poor Silesian villager, embarks on an epic journey to the Prussian capital, the seat of an ageing Frederick the Great. His heavenly beauty, endearing naivety, and ultimately, fate, will transform his life once he crosses the city's gates.
Echoes within echoes. Circles within circles. Wealth, poverty, and moral compromise. The privilege and toxic masculinity of the Prussian officer class.
Berlin, a city of contrasts and complexities, serves as a backdrop for these individuals' lives. Their stories intertwine, revealing the intricate web of social, economic, and political forces that shaped the city's history. Through their triumphs and struggles, they embody the resilience and determination of the human spirit, navigating the challenges of their time with grace and resilience.
Boys and men of Berlin, a testament to the enduring power of human connection and the complexities of human nature.
