Desire Will Set You Free (2015)

Based on a true story, the plot follows the relationship of an American writer of Israeli/Palestinian descent and a Russian aspiring artist working as a hustler, offering access to the city's vibrant queer and underground scenes while examining the differences between expatriate and refugee life. Our characters travel through Berlin's layered history and unique subcultural landscape; on their adventures they discover influences and remnants of the Weimar Republic, WWII, the Bowie years, and punk.

Sadly Over-hyped
Great Film overall
Best movie of this year hands down!
I like movies that are aware of what they are selling... without [any] greater aspirations than to make people laugh and that's it.
