Berlin, 1961. In a city split by walls, spies, and secrets, Karl Brunner, a meticulous watchmaker whose house straddles the border between the two cities, finds himself reluctantly pulled into the absurdities of espionage. Everyday objects become instruments of intrigue, mundane routines hide coded messages, and every second spent spying for both the East and the West carries life-or-death stakes. Equal parts darkly comic and historically precise, BERLIN/BERLIN is a cerebral spy tale, a tale of two cities torn, where bureaucracy, paranoia, obsessive logic, and a house with it's on secret, collide in quietly hilarious ways.
