    Isherwood’s Neighbourhood – A Walking Tour
    Brendan Nash from Cabaret Berlin leads another tour of the Berlin experienced by author Christopher Isherwood during the Weimar era. You can find more details on the tour (which starts at 11am) here – and listen to an interview with your guide below:

    OneBeat at Brunnen70
    Wedding basement bar Brunnen70 (guess the address!) will showcase live acts, VJs and DJs playing beats, electronica and dub. We’re most looking forward to a live set from Wermonster, who, among other things, creates tracks from sounds recorded around Berlin… but we imagine the foundant au chocolat cupcakes will also be a big draw. Sweet ;)

    KulturRaum Zwingli-Kirche is a charitable cultural centre in an old church near Rudolfplatz, Friedrichshain. Berlin Film Society, who are screening La Dolce Vita there this Friday, were kind enough to invite me to photograph the space while they set up. This neo-gothic church is about to undergo a much-needed renovation, so I felt lucky to be able to capture its current state of beautiful decay. If you want to see it before all its edges are ironed out, come to this Friday’s event, for  Italian food and drinks, live jazz, and of course, La Dolce Vita.

      They’re screening La Dolce VIta in a church? That’s going to be the most italian thing in Berlin after Laura Pausini’s concert. It’s a pity I can’t go

    Jiro Dreams of Sushi cast

    We LOVE sushi, and we’re craving some actual good films after the shit we’ve sat through lately (Matrix 2 and 3… WHY?!). That’s why we’re stoked that the Berlin Film Society is showing this feature-length documentary at Agora Collective on Friday: Jiro Dreams of Sushi. We’re going to get there early so we can nom down some free ricepipes and then sink a few in the Hecate pop-up cocktail bar afterwards. You can get tickets on Gidsy, or by emailing rsvp@berlinfilmsociety.com. Here’s a little taster (!) of the film to whet your appetite (!!):

    A thoughtful and elegant meditation on work, family, and the art of perfection. The story of 85 year-old Jiro Ono, considered by many to be the world’s greatest sushi chef. He is the proprietor of Sukiyabashi Jiro, a 10-seat, sushi-only restaurant inauspiciously located in a Tokyo subway station. Despite its humble appearances, it is the first restaurant of its kind to be awarded a prestigious 3 star Michelin review, and sushi lovers from around the globe make repeated pilgrimage, calling months in advance and shelling out top dollar for a coveted seat at Jiro’s sushi bar. At the heart of this story is Jiro’s relationship with his eldest son Yoshikazu, the worthy heir to Jiro’s legacy, who is unable to live up to his full potential in his father’s shadow.
