Natura Urbana: The Brachen of Berlin – mit Gespräch im Anschluss

In the organizer's words:

Berlin's wastelands are unique: they are home to an extraordinary variety of spontaneous vegetation from all over the world. The documentary "Natura Urbana" by Matthew Ghandy uses the changing vegetation to tell the story of Berlin from the destruction of the war to the latest phase of urban transformation.

Followed by a discussion with landscape architects Thilo Folkerts and Fanny Brandauer as well as Sandra Jasper, co-author and co-producer of "Natura Urbana: The Brachen of Berlin".
