In the 1920s, Berlin was characterised by extreme contrasts in every respect: wealth and misery were often only a stone’s throw away from each other. Showiness, pomp and splendid architecture along the major boulevards and one street away: shabby backyards without sunlight. War invalids begging for alms in front of dazzling variety and light theatres. Furiously demonstrating communists and up-and-coming Nazis. Unconditional modernism, high culture with international appeal, a cocaine-inebriated avant-garde and a distinctive milieu…
Europe’s secret capital was a veritable powder keg – socially, politically and culturally. Energetic, fast and stretched to breaking point, shimmering and shabby, breathtakingly exciting and “highly explosive” in every respect.
20s.BERLIN will not only depict all this, but make it possible to experience it again. Virtually. As a photorealistic VR simulation – authentic, immersive and interactive!
