Berlinale column : New Berlinale-column: olle bags, Clans, and Hertha BSC

can Now wrap up the Berlinale. The festival, bags of this vintage black-and-white-and-grey, like a old movie. Maybe because Kosslick.

In the fan shop at the Potsdamer Platz, an elderly lady, the open Lacing of the Retro-backpack desperately. "The droning yet," says a saleswoman. Hopefully this is not true for the baby pacifier; new offer for five euros. In any case, they are NOT DANGEROUS. Quote from the package insert: "If the soother you are advised to complete in the mouth of the child device, IN a PANIC, he can not be swallowed and is designed to survive such an event." Hopefully, the babies are designed also.

What all of the Berlinale bags have in common: Important papers buckling in here. Laptops fit in. The zipper will tear at some point – my first favorite bag is in my second favorite color (Jg. 2007; purple). After all, the lining helps in the Transport of wine bottles. And you can use for the Berlinale.

the opening movie to sober up

The opening movie, despite some of the heart joke is rather to sober up: Here's a brother dies of an Overdose, there's a man beating up his children, and his father with a phone that has a dial. "The cinema is often a leap into the Unknown", fine says the President of the Jury French actress Juliette Binoche at the opening, and smiles. The Berlinale is often more: a leap into the unknown misfortune. Hopefully someone is Juliette Binoche has said before.

What Berlin should know: The Berlinale will not take place this time in Kleinmachnow. Apparently they have pigs, afraid of the wild. Or the clan hordes who have chased Bushido. Small machnower have to take the train to the big cinema. And after the late movie a hotel room in Berlin.

As of the Hertha Fan from Leipzig, travelled by train to the Cup game against Bayern. "Because of the Berlinale, I got only a Hostel at the Potsdamer Straße", he complained in the on-Board restaurant. "Oh, a hot patch," interjected a woman from the next table, "the red light and so on; but dit the way of looks." To the man: "The lady comes to me anyway only in the room, when her name is Hertha."

is rotated at the same time, a Berlinale-Film about Hertha Fans? Misfortune the club has often enough.
