After Hours

About This Movie

Steffen Köhn's 'After Hours' is a fascinating dive into the atmospheric realms of the Berghain club, but it’s not your typical club documentary. The film’s pacing mirrors the rhythm of a techno track, oscillating between silence and sound as it brings wild animals into these vast, empty spaces. You’re not just observing; you feel the weight of the abandoned power station, its echoes filled with the presence of creatures roaming freely. There’s this strange harmony as the film challenges the human-centric view of nightlife, offering a fresh lens to consider the dynamics of space and sound. It’s a unique blend of the surreal and the natural, capturing a moment where the wild meets the man-made in an unexpected, thought-provoking way.
