After the FallHow could the most important artifact of the last half century completely disappear? A decade after the fall of the Berlin Wall, virtually nothing of the concrete structure has been left. Gone is the barrier between East and West, Communism and Capitalism, but not the conflict. This documentary searches for the Wall’s traces and the psychological scars upon those who lived in its shadow. The filmmakers encounter a psychotherapist with a backload of patients still too frightened to even cross into the West, a Reverend who saves the only intact section of the Wall remaining in Berlin, a Stasi Captain who now plays himself on a set with a styrofoam “Wall” in a feature film, and English homeopaths who prescribe pulverized Berlin Wall for depression, oppression and split personality. AFTER THE FALL is a portrait of a city, exquisitely filmed, recounting the story and disappearance of the most absurd of constructions: the Berlin Wall. |
