The Otherside [Die Andere Seite 2007]



"Using first-person testimony from both sides of the divide, this animated documentary explores life with the Berlin Wall. Documenting the ideas, notions and preconceptions of Berliners about life on ‘the other side’, Die Andere Seite is a reflective visual essay on the interplay between myth and reality." (Land, 2007)
Berliners who experienced the divide are interviewed in Die Andere Seite. With segments of private memories, the work forms a broader collective feel/perceptions towards the Wall. With sound that accompany those experiences.
