We’ve put together a list of tips for a particularly special cinema experience.
From the heart of the city to the neighborhoods, from the river Spree to the lakes, from the rooftops to the underground, from the streets into nature: Where a film set turns into reality - Film city Berlin!
Visit the Museum für Film und Fernsehen on Potsdamer Platz for a fascinating trip back in time through the history of German filmmaking. Fans of Marlene Dietrich will love the museum especially – her former possessions are the exhibition’s centrepiece. Her tiny shoes and her make-up case and costumes, including the legendary swan down coat, present to be marvelled at.
The film museum in Potsdam and the other museums and filming locations also make for exciting visits if you’re a film fan.
Berlin is the city of films, of stars, of glamour: Berlin is the site of German film shoots as well as international blockbusters, stars meet on festivals’ and premieres’ red carpets. If you’re lucky, you might sit down in a restaurant to find yourself side-by-side with George Clooney.
In the cinemas the current blockbusters, art house productions and exciting film series are shown. The big cinemas are at the cutting edge of technology. The IMAX overwhelms you with never-before-seen impressions. Other cinemas, such as the International in Mitte, inspire with their architecture. And the smaller neighbourhood cinemas have their own individual charm.
