About this episode
The episode discusses various problematic events in Berlin, including film festivals and government austerity measures affecting the city.
Film festivals, security conferences, Germans sliding immaculately along icy tubes — this fortnight has been a delirious concatenation of gala events, each one more problematic than the last. But then there's also been the usual background noise of terrible things happening in the world — so thank god for the Megacans. Germans betraying the people of Afghanistan all over again, and the Berlin government pouring the corrosive acid of austerity onto the soul of the city. Well done, everybody! Top marks!
